Abstract

1. The mechanism of the reaction of atomic oxygen with methyl alcohol in a jet has been studied. The principal carbon containing reaction product was formaldehyde, formed in the initial act of the interaction of atomic oxygen with alcohol. 2. The absolute values of the rate constant of the reaction of atomic oxygen with methyl alcohol at temperatures in the region 347–506°K and pressures 2 to 14 mm. were measured. The energy of activation of the reaction was determined. 3. Reaction of atomic oxygen with methyl alcohol proceeds by a bimolecular mechanism without participation of third particles.
