Comments:
Thermal decomposition of 1,3-butadiene, 1,3-butadiene-1,1,4,4-d4, 1,2-butadiene, and 2-butyne at temperatures up to 1520 K was carried out by flash pyrolysis. Products of reaction after 20us were isolated by supersonic expansion and detected by single-photon (118 nm) vacuum-ultraviolet time-of-flight mass spectrometry (VUV-TOFMS). Directly detected products were CH3 and C3H3, as well as C3H4, C4H4, and C4H5. In conjunction with literature data on the potential energy surface, these results were used to make deductions regarding the reaction mechanism. It is concluded that the primary initial radical production channel in 1,3-butadiene pyrolysis is isomerization of 1,3-butadiene to 1,2-butadiene and subsequent C-C bond fission of 1,2-butadiene to produce CH3 and C3H3 (propargyl).
