Primary reactions of the thermal decomposition of tricyclodecane
Olivier Herbinet, Baptiste Sirjean, Roda Bounaceur +4
In order to better understand the thermal decomposition of polycyclanes, the pyrolysis of tricyclodecane has been studied in a jet-stirred reactor at temperatures from 848 to 933 K…
Extension of the composite CBS-QB3 method to singlet diradical calculations
Baptiste Sirjean, René Fournet, Pierre-Alexandre Glaude +1
The composite CBS-QB3 method is widely used to obtain accurate energies of molecules and radicals although its use in the case of singlet diradicals gives rise to some difficulties…
The autoignition of cyclopentane and cyclohexane in a shock tube
Baptiste Sirjean, Frédéric Buda, Hichem Hakka +4
Ignition delay times of cyclohexane-oxygen-argon and cyclopentane-oxygen-argon mixtures have been measured in a shock tube, the onset of ignition being detected by OH radical emiss…
Detailed kinetic study of the ring opening of cycloalkanes by CBS-QB3 calculations
Baptiste Sirjean, Pierre-Alexandre Glaude, M. F. Ruiz-Lopez +1
This work reports a theoretical study of the gas phase unimolecular decomposition of cyclobutane, cyclopentane and cyclohexane by means of quantum chemical calculations. A biradica…
Thermal decomposition of norbornane (bicyclo[2.2.1]heptane) dissolved in benzene. Experimental study and mechanism investigation
Olivier Herbinet, Baptiste Sirjean, Frédérique Battin-Leclerc +2
The thermal decomposition of norbornane (dissolved in benzene) has been studied in a jet stirred reactor at temperatures between 873 and 973 K, at residence times ranging from 1 to…
