Abstract
Cyclohexane oxidation chemistry was investigated using a near-atmospheric pressure jet-stirred reactor at T = 570 K and equivalence ratio ϕ = 0.8. Numerous intermediates including hydroperoxides and highly oxygenated molecules were detected using synchrotron vacuum ultraviolet photoelectron photoion coincidence spectroscopy. Supported by high-level quantum calculations, the analysis of photoelectron spectra allowed the firm identification of molecular species formed during the oxidation of cyclohexane. Besides, this work validates recently published gas chromatography and synchrotron vacuum ultraviolet photoionization mass spectrometry data. Unambiguous detection of characteristic hydroperoxides (e.g., γ-ketohydroperoxides) and their respective decomposition products provides support for the conventional O2 addition channels up to the third addition and their relative contribution to the cyclohexane oxidation. The results were also compared with the predictions of a recently proposed new detailed kinetic model of cyclohexane oxidation. Most of the predictions are in line with the current experimental findings, highlighting the robustness of the kinetic model. However, the analysis of the recorded slow photoelectron spectra indicating the possible presence of C5 species in the kinetic model provides hints that the substituted cyclopentyl radicals from cyclohexyl ring opening might play a minor role in cyclohexane oxidation. Potentially important missing reactions are also discussed.

Abstract
An extensive and reliable database of thermodynamic properties of C6-C12 aromatic molecules is constructed by using quantum chemistry calculations. There are 101 molecules in total, which cover a variety of structures including mono-substituted, di-substituted, and bi-cyclic aromatics which can be important intermediates in the combustion of alkylbenzenes. Based on the database, a consistent set of Benson group additive values (GAV) and non-nearest neighbor interactions (NNI) is developed to extend the applicability of Benson's group additivity method for aromatic molecules. Meanwhile, GAVs of existing groups are also updated to improve their accuracy. Geometry optimizations, and vibrational frequency calculations are conducted at the M06-2X/6-311++G(d,p) level of theory. Internal rotor potentials for lower-frequency modes are obtained at the M06-2X/6-31G level of theory. G3 and G4 compound methods are used to derive the 0 K enthalpies of formation via the atomization approach. The entropy and temperature-dependent heat capacity values of all species are calculated via the Master Equation System Solver (MESS) code. This work also provides an extensive literature comparison to validate the calculated results, and good agreement is observed with literature data. The correction terms beyond a group range are explored. The NNIs of di-substituted aromatics with substituents including OH, CHO, and CH3 groups are reported. Entropy reduction is observed in the molecules with two substituents in the ortho position, which mainly derives from the hindered internal rotations. In addition, ring strain corrections (RSC) of dicyclic aromatics are evaluated. The strain energies of molecules with a four-membered side ring are prominently large, as the bond length and bond angle distortions are severely restricted. Ring strain also plays a key role in the C-H bond strength associated with the benzylic carbons in dicyclic aromatics. The loss of a hydrogen atom can destroy the high ring-strain geometry leading to a large C-H bond energy.

Abstract
The chemistry underlying liquid-phase oxidation of organic compounds, the main cause of their aging, is characterized by a free-radical chain reaction mechanism. The rigorous simulation of these phenomena requires the use of detailed kinetic models that contain thousands of species and reactions. The development of such models for the liquid phase remains a challenge as solvent-dependent thermokinetic parameters have to be provided for all the species and reactions of the model. Therefore, accurate and high-throughput methods to generate these data are required. In this work, we propose new methods to generate these data, and we apply them for the development of a detailed chemical kinetic model for n-butane autoxidation, which is then validated against literature data. Our approach for model development is based on the work of Jalan et al. [J. Phys. Chem. B 2013, 117, 2955-2970] who used Gibbs free energies of solvation [ΔsolvG(T)] to correct the data of the gas-phase kinetic model. In our approach, an equation of state (EoS) is used to compute ΔsolvG as a function of temperature for all the chemical species in the mechanism. Currently, ΔsolvG(T) of free radicals cannot be computed with an EoS and it was calculated for their parent molecule (H-atom added on the radical site). Theoretical calculations with the implicit solvent model were performed to quantify the impact of this assumption and showed that it is acceptable for radicals in n-butane and probably in all n-alkanes. New rate rules were proposed for the most important reactions of the model, based on theoretical calculations and the literature data. The developed detailed kinetic model for n-butane autoxidation is the first proposed model in the literature and was validated against the experimental data from the literature. Simulations showed that the main autoxidation products, sec-butyl hydroperoxides and 2-butanol, are produced from H-abstractions from n-butane by sec-C4H9OO radicals and the C4H9OO + C4H9OO reaction, respectively. The uncertainty of the product ratio ("butanone + 2-butanol"/"2-butoxy + 2-butoxy") of the latter reaction remains high in the literature, and our simulations suggest a 1:1 ratio in n-butane solvent.

Abstract
The study of the standard formation enthalpy, entropy, and heat capacity for key species relevant to the low-temperature combustion of cyclohexane has been performed by applying the group additivity method of Benson. The properties of 18 Benson groups (8 of them for the first time), and 10 ring correction factors for cyclic species were estimated through different empirical and semi-empirical methods. The method validation proceeded through comparison of predicted values for certain number of newly estimated groups and available literature data derived from quantum chemistry estimations. Further validations of the estimated properties of groups have been provided by comparing estimated properties of test species with data in literature and kinetic databases. Also the standard deviation between prediction and reported values has been evaluated for each validation case. A similar approach has been applied for validation of the estimated ring correction groups. For selected well-studied cyclic molecules the predicted values and the literature data have been compared with each other, and the standard deviations have been also reported. The evaluated properties of the cyclohexane relevant species were also compared with similar ones available in other kinetic models and in databases. At the end the estimated properties have been presented in a tabulated form of NASA polynomial coefficients with extrapolation up to 3500 K.

Abstract
Abstract
Autoignition processes are of fundamental kinetic importance as well as of practical relevance for combustion devices. In recent years, diethyl ether (DEE) has attracted increasing attention as a diesel additive and also serves as a test compound in fire-safety-related studies. In the present work, a kinetically parameterized reaction mechanism for the autoignition of DEE is developed. It consists of a DEE-specific part supplemented by a base mechanism taken from the literature that contains the C1/C2 hydrocarbon and the H2/O2 reaction systems. The complete mechanism is validated against experimental ignition delay times available from the literature for temperatures ranging from 500 to 1300 K and reactant pressures between 3 and 5 bar (T=500−900 K) and between 10 and 40 bar (T=900−1300 K). The absolute values and the temperature dependence of the ignition delay times are satisfactorily reproduced. This includes important autoignition characteristics such as one- and two-stage ignitions and the so-called negative temperature coefficient regime where ignition delay times increase with temperature. Detailed kinetic-mechanistic explanations for all these phenomena are given.

Abstract
The thermal decomposition of three ethyl esters, ethyl formate (C3H6O2), ethyl acetate (C4H8O2), and ethyl propanoate (C5H10O2), was studied behind reflected shock waves using laser absorption to measure concentration time-histories of H2O, CO2, and CO. Experimental conditions covered temperatures of 1301-1636 K, pressures of 1.48-1.72 atm, and reactant concentrations of 2000 ppm in argon. Recently developed mid-infrared laser diagnostics for H2O (2.5 μm), CO2 (4.3 μm), and CO (4.6 μm) provide orders-of-magnitude greater detectivity compared to previous near-infrared absorption sensors. The experimental results have highlighted significant differences among these three ethyl esters: negligible CO2 production during ethyl formate pyrolysis, quite slow CO formation rate during ethyl acetate pyrolysis, and nearly equal formation rate of H2O, CO2, and CO during ethyl propanoate pyrolysis. Detailed kinetic modeling was performed to understand the destruction pathways of these three ethyl esters with different alkyl chain lengths. Rate of production and sensitivity analyses were also carried out to interpret the experimental results and to identify the key reactions affecting experimental results.

Abstract
The experimental study of the oxidation of cyclohexane has been performed in a jet-stirred reactor at temperatures ranging from 500 to 1100 K (low- and intermediate temperature zones including the negative temperature-coefficient area), at a residence time of 2 s and for dilute mixtures with equivalence ratios of 0.5, 1, and 2. Experiments were carried out at quasi-atmospheric pressure (1.07 bar). The fuel and reaction product mole fractions were measured using online gas chromatography. A total of 34 reaction products have been detected and quantified in this study. Typical reaction products formed in the low-temperature oxidation of cyclohexane include cyclic ethers (1,2-epoxycyclohexane and 1,4-epoxycyclohexane), 5-hexenal (formed from the rapid decomposition of 1,3-epoxycyclohexane), cyclohexanone, and cyclohexene, as well as benzene and phenol. Cyclohexane displays high low-temperature reactivity with well-marked negative temperature-coefficient (NTC) behavior at equivalence ratios 0.5 and 1. The fuel-rich system (ϕ = 2) is much less reactive in the same region and exhibits no NTC. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first jet-stirred reactor study to report NTC in cyclohexane oxidation. Laminar burning velocities were also measured by the heated burner method at initial gas temperatures of 298, 358, and 398 K and at 1 atm. The laminar burning velocity values peak at ϕ = 1.1 and are measured as 40 and 63.1 cm/s for Ti = 298 and 398 K, respectively. An updated detailed chemical kinetic model including low-temperature pathways was used to simulate the present (jet-stirred reactor and laminar burning velocity) and literature experimental (laminar burning velocity, rapid compression machine, and shock tube ignition delay times) data. Reasonable agreement is observed with most of the products observed in our reactor, as well as the literature experimental data considered in this paper.

Abstract
A detailed kinetic model describing the oxidation of 2,5-dimethylfuran (DMF), a potential second-generation biofuel, is proposed. The kinetic model is based upon quantum chemical calculations for the initial DMF consumption reactions and important reactions of intermediates. The model is validated by comparison to new DMF shock tube ignition delay time measurements (over the temperature range 1300-1831 K and at nominal pressures of 1 and 4 bar) and the DMF pyrolysis speciation measurements of Lifshitz et al. [ J. Phys. Chem. A 1998 , 102 ( 52 ), 10655 - 10670 ]. Globally, modeling predictions are in good agreement with the considered experimental targets. In particular, ignition delay times are predicted well by the new model, with model-experiment deviations of at most a factor of 2, and DMF pyrolysis conversion is predicted well, to within experimental scatter of the Lifshitz et al. data. Additionally, comparisons of measured and model predicted pyrolysis speciation provides validation of theoretically calculated channels for the oxidation of DMF. Sensitivity and reaction flux analyses highlight important reactions as well as the primary reaction pathways responsible for the decomposition of DMF and formation and destruction of key intermediate and product species.

Abstract
The low-temperature oxidation of propane was investigated using a jet-stirred reactor at atmospheric pressure and two methods of analysis: gas chromatography and synchrotron vacuum ultraviolet photoionization mass spectrometry (SVUV-PIMS) with direct sampling through a molecular jet. The second method allowed the identification of products, such as molecules with hydroperoxy functions, which are not stable enough to be detected by gas chromatography. Mole fractions of the reactants and reaction products were measured as a function of the temperature (530-730 K), with a particular attention to reaction products involved in the low temperature oxidation, such as cyclic ethers, aldehydes, alcohols, ketones, and hydroperoxides. A new model has been obtained from an automatically generated one, which was used as a starting point, with a large number of re-estimated thermochemical and kinetic data. The kinetic data of the most sensitive reactions, i.e., isomerizations of alkylperoxy radicals and the subsequent decompositions, have been calculated at the CBS-QB3 level of theory. The model allows a satisfactory prediction of the experimental data. A flow rate analysis has allowed highlighting the important reaction channels.

Abstract
JTHERGAS is a versatile calculator (implemented in JAVA) to estimate thermodynamic information from two dimensional graphical representations of molecules and radicals involving covalent bonds based on the Benson additivity method. The versatility of JTHERGAS stems from its inherent philosophy that all the fundamental data used in the calculation should be visible, to see exactly where the final values came from, and modifiable, to account for new data that can appear in the literature. The main use of this method is within automatic combustion mechanism generation systems where fast estimation of a large number and variety of chemical species is needed. The implementation strategy is based on meta-atom definitions and substructure analysis allowing a highly extensible database without modification of the core algorithms. Several interfaces for the database and the calculations are provided from terminal line commands, to graphical interfaces to web-services. The first order estimation of thermodynamics is based summing up the contributions of each heavy atom bonding description. Second order corrections due to steric hindrance and ring strain are made. Automatic estimate of contributions due to internal, external and optical symmetries are also made. The thermodynamical data for radicals is calculated by taking the difference due to the lost of a hydrogen radical taking into account changes in symmetry, spin, rotations, vibrations and steric hindrances. The software is public domain and is based on standard libraries such as CDK and CML.

Abstract
This paper revisits the primary reactions involved in the oxidation of n-butane from low to intermediate temperatures (550-800 K) including the negative temperature coefficient (NTC) zone. A model that was automatically generated is used as a starting point and a large number of thermochemical and kinetic data are then re-estimated. The kinetic data of the isomerization of alkylperoxy radicals giving (•)QOOH radicals and the subsequent decomposition to give cyclic ethers has been calculated at the CBS-QB3 level of theory. The newly obtained model allows a satisfactory prediction of experimental data recently obtained in a jet-stirred reactor and in rapid compression machines. A considerable improvement of the prediction of the selectivity of cyclic ethers is especially obtained compared to previous models. Linear and global sensitivity analyses have been performed to better understand which reactions are of influence in the NTC zone.

Abstract
The experimental study of the thermal decomposition of methyl decanoate was performed in a jet-stirred reactor at temperatures ranging from 773 to 1123 K, at residence times between 1 and 4 s, at a pressure of 800 Torr (106.6 kPa) and at high dilution in helium (fuel inlet mole fraction of 0.0218). Species leaving the reactor were analyzed by gas chromatography. Main reaction products were hydrogen, carbon oxides, small hydrocarbons from C1 to C3, large 1-olefins from 1-butene to 1-nonene, and unsaturated esters with one double bond at the end of the alkyl chain from methyl-2-propenoate to methyl-8-nonenoate. At the highest temperatures, the formation of polyunsaturated species was observed: 1,3-butadiene, 1,3-cyclopentadiene, benzene, toluene, indene, and naphthalene. These results were compared with previous ones about the pyrolysis of n-dodecane, an n-alkane of similar size. The reactivity of both molecules was found to be very close. The alkane produces more olefins while the ester yields unsaturated oxygenated compounds. A detailed kinetic model for the thermal decomposition of methyl decanoate has been generated using the version of software EXGAS which was updated to take into account the specific chemistry involved in the oxidation of methyl esters. This model contains 324 species and 3231 reactions. It provided a very good prediction of the experimental data obtained in jet-stirred reactor. The formation of the major products was analyzed. The kinetic analysis showed that the retro-ene reactions of intermediate unsaturated methyl esters are of importance in low reactivity systems.

Abstract
In the context of limiting the environmental impact of transportation, this critical review discusses new directions which are being followed in the development of more predictive and more accurate detailed chemical kinetic models for the combustion of fuels. In the first part, the performance of current models, especially in terms of the prediction of pollutant formation, is evaluated. In the next parts, recent methods and ways to improve these models are described. An emphasis is given on the development of detailed models based on elementary reactions, on the production of the related thermochemical and kinetic parameters, and on the experimental techniques available to produce the data necessary to evaluate model predictions under well defined conditions (212 references).

Abstract
The detailed chemical structures of three low-pressure (35 Torr) premixed laminar furan/oxygen/argon flames with equivalence ratios of 1.4, 1.8 and 2.2 have been investigated by using tunable synchrotron vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) photoionization and molecular-beam mass spectrometry. About 40 combustion species including hydrocarbons and oxygenated intermediates have been identified by measurements of photoionization efficiency spectra. Mole fraction profiles of the flame species including reactants, intermediates and products have been determined by scanning burner position with some selected photon energies near ionization thresholds. Flame temperatures have been measured by a Pt-6%Rh/Pt-30%Rh thermocouple. A new mechanism involving 206 species and 1368 reactions has been proposed whose predictions are in reasonable agreement with measured species profiles for the three investigated flames. Rate-of-production and sensitivity analyses have been performed to track the key reaction paths governing furan consumption for different equivalence ratios. Both experimental and modeling results indicate that few aromatics could be formed in these flames. Furthermore, the current model has been validated against previous pyrolysis results of the literature obtained behind shock waves and the agreement is reasonable as well.

Abstract
The modeling of the oxidation of methyl esters was investigated and the specific chemistry, which is due to the presence of the ester group in this class of molecules, is described. New reactions and rate parameters were defined and included in the software EXGAS for the automatic generation of kinetic mechanisms. Models generated with EXGAS were successfully validated against data from the literature (oxidation of methyl hexanoate and methyl heptanoate in a jet-stirred reactor) and a new set of experimental results for methyl decanoate. The oxidation of this last species was investigated in a jet-stirred reactor at temperatures from 500 to 1100 K, including the negative temperature coefficient region, under stoichiometric conditions, at a pressure of 1.06 bar and for a residence time of 1.5 s: more than 30 reaction products, including olefins, unsaturated esters, and cyclic ethers, were quantified and successfully simulated. Flow rate analysis showed that reactions pathways for the oxidation of methyl esters in the low-temperature range are similar to that of alkanes.

Abstract
Reactions of alkyl radicals with oxygen are key reactions in the low-temperature oxidation of hydrocarbons, but they have not been extensively studied yet in the case of cycloalkanes. Isomerizations of cycloalkylperoxy radicals and formation of cyclic ethers are especially important. In the present work, a theoretical study of the gas-phase reactions of cyclopentylperoxy and cyclohexylperoxy radicals has been carried out by means of quantum chemical calculations at the CBS-QB3 level. Computations on cyclopentylperoxy decomposition pathways are reported here for the first time. Thermochemical data have been obtained by means of isodesmic reactions, and the contribution of hindered rotors has been explicitly taken into account. Transition state theory has been used to calculate rate constants for all the elementary reactions. Three-parameter Arrhenius expressions have been derived in the temperature range 300-1000 K. Tunneling effects have been accounted for in the case of H-atom transfers. Our results compare well with experimental data and previous calculations available in the literature. In particular, the predicted rate constants for processes involving cyclohexylperoxy radicals, which have been introduced in a reaction mechanism scheme proposed before, exhibit excellent agreement with experiments at low and intermediate temperatures.

Abstract
Butanol, an alcohol which can be produced from biomass sources, has received recent interest as an alternative to gasoline for use in spark ignition engines and as a possible blending compound with fossil diesel or biodiesel. Therefore, the autoignition of the four isomers of butanol (1-butanol, 2-butanol, iso-butanol, and tert-butanol) has been experimentally studied at high temperatures in a shock tube, and a kinetic mechanism for description of their high-temperature oxidation has been developed. Ignition delay times for butanol/oxygen/argon mixtures have been measured behind reflected shock waves at temperatures and pressures ranging from approximately 1200 to 1800 K and 1 to 4 bar. Electronically excited OH emission and pressure measurements were used to determine ignition-delay times. The influence of temperature, pressure, and mixture composition on ignition delay has been characterized. A detailed kinetic mechanism has been developed to describe the oxidation of the butanol isomers and validated by comparison to the shock-tube measurements. Reaction flux and sensitivity analysis illustrates the relative importance of the three competing classes of consumption reactions during the oxidation of the four butanol isomers: dehydration, unimolecular decomposition, and H-atom abstraction. Kinetic modeling indicates that the consumption of 1-butanol and iso-butanol, the most reactive isomers, takes place primarily by H-atom abstraction resulting in the formation of radicals, the decomposition of which yields highly reactive branching agents, H atoms and OH radicals. Conversely, the consumption of tert-butanol and 2-butanol, the least reactive isomers, takes place primarily via dehydration, resulting in the formation of alkenes, which lead to resonance stabilized radicals with very low reactivity. To our knowledge, the ignition-delay measurements and oxidation mechanism presented here for 2-butanol, iso-butanol, and tert-butanol are the first of their kind.

Abstract
The Utah Surrogate Mechanism was extended in order to model a stoichiometric premixed cyclohexane flame (P = 30 Torr). Generic rates were assigned to reaction classes of hydrogen abstraction, beta scission, and isomerization, and the resulting mechanism was found to be adequate in describing the combustion chemistry of cyclohexane. Satisfactory results were obtained in comparison with the experimental data of oxygen, major products and important intermediates, which include major soot precursors of C2-C5 unsaturated species. Measured concentrations of immediate products of fuel decomposition were also successfully reproduced. For example, the maximum concentrations of benzene and 1,3-butadiene, two major fuel decomposition products via competing pathways, were predicted within 10% of the measured values. Ring-opening reactions compete with those of cascading dehydrogenation for the decomposition of the conjugate cyclohexyl radical. The major ring-opening pathways produce 1-buten-4-yl radical, molecular ethylene, and 1,3-butadiene. The butadiene species is formed via beta scission after a 1-4 internal hydrogen migration of 1-hexen-6-yl radical. Cascading dehydrogenation also makes an important contribution to the fuel decomposition and provides the exclusive formation pathway of benzene. Benzene formation routes via combination of C2-C4 hydrocarbon fragments were found to be insignificant under current flame conditions, inferred by the later concentration peak of fulvene, in comparison with benzene, because the analogous species series for benzene formation via dehydrogenation was found to be precursors with regard to parent species of fulvene.

Abstract
The kinetics of oxidation of kerosene Jet A-1 and a kerosene/rapeseed oil methyl ester (RME) mixture (80/20, mol/mol) (biokerosene) was studied experimentally in a jet-stirred reactor at 10 atm and constant residence time, over the temperature range 740-1200 K, and for variable equivalence ratios (0.5-1.5). Concentration profiles of the reactants, stable intermediates, and final products were obtained by probe sampling followed by on-line and off-line gas chromatography analyses. The oxidation of these fuels in these conditions was modeled using a detailed kinetic reaction mechanism consisting of 2027 reversible reactions and 263 species. The surrogate biokerosene model fuel used here consisted of a mixture of n-hexadecane, n-propylcyclohexane, n-propylbenzene, and n-decane, where the long-chain methyl ester fraction was simply represented by n-hexadecane. The proposed kinetic reaction mechanism used in the modeling yielded a good representation of the kinetics of oxidation of kerosene and biokerosene under jet-stirred reactor conditions and of kerosene in a premixed flame. The data and the model showed the biokerosene (Jet A-1/RME mixture) has a slightly higher reactivity than Jet A-1, whereas no major modification of the product distribution was observed besides the formation of small unsaturated methyl esters produced from RME's oxidation. The model predicts no difference in the ignition delays of kerosene and biokerosene. Using the proposed kinetic scheme, the formation of potential soot precursors was studied with particular attention.

Abstract
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, for residence times between 0.5 and 6 s and at atmospheric pressure, corresponding to a conversion between 0.01% and 25%. The main products of the reaction are hydrogen, methane, ethylene, ethane, propene, 1,3-cyclopentadiene, cyclopentene, benzene, 1,5-hexadiene, toluene, and 3-cyclopentylcyclopentene. A primary mechanism containing all the possible initiation steps, including those involving diradicals, as well as propagation reactions has been developed and allows experimental results to be satisfactorily modeled. The main reaction pathways of consumption of tricyclodecane and of formation of the main products have been derived from flow rate and sensitivity analyses.
