This study presents the experimental and theoretical investigation of the dissociation of cycloheptane and 1-heptene for the first time, revealing their dissociation mechanisms and kinetic characteristics. It was found that the dissociation of cycloheptane is similar to that of cyclopentane and cyclohexane, with the size of the cycloalkanes affecting their dissociation rates.
Cycloalkanes and alkenes are important components of real fuels but there is little kinetic and mechanistic data on the dissociation of most large cyclic and olefinic molecules at elevated temperatures. We present here the first experimental and theoretical investigation of dissociation of cycloheptane and the initial product from ring opening, 1-heptene. Experiments were performed in a diaphragmless shock tube using laser schlieren densitometry. Pyrolysis of cycloheptane (0.5-4% in Kr) was studied over 1450-2000 K and 30-120 Torr. Experiments with 1-heptene (1-4% in Kr) covered 1200-1650 K and 30-120 Torr. A newly developed chemical kinetic mechanism for pyrolysis of cycloheptane and 1-heptene is presented herein. Simulations are in very good agreement with the experimental measurements. Rate coefficients for the initial ring-opening process in cycloheptane, k 1 , and dissociation of 1-heptene, k 2 , were determined from the experiments. Both k 1 and k 2 are in falloff, and the pressure and temperature dependencies were well reproduced by theoretical calculations allowing extrapolation to conditions beyond the scope of this work. These calculations yielded the following expressions for k 1 and k 2 with the uncertainties estimated as +/- 40% and +/- 50% respectively: k 1 , infinity = 5 . 94 & times; 10 17 exp ( & minus;44 T, 521 ) s & minus;1 and k 2 , infinity = 8 . 86 & times; 10 16 exp ( & minus;35 , 887 T ) s & minus;1 . The results of this study indicate that cycloheptane dissociates similarly to cyclopentane and cyclohexane, i.e. ring-opening via C -C scission to a diradical that rapidly isomerizes to a conjugate 1-alkene. The secondary chemistry is dominated by the dissociation products of the 1-alkenes i.e. allyl and n-alkyl radicals. Furthermore, rates of dissociation of the cycloalkanes are size dependent and k cyclopentane << k cyclohexane < k cycloheptane . (c) 2020 The Combustion Institute. Published by Elsevier Inc.
