Thermal Decomposition of 2-Butanol as a Potential Nonfossil Fuel: A Computational Study
TL;DR: The results indicated that dehydration to 1- and 2-butene through four-center transition states is the most dominant channel at low to moderate temperatures (T ≤ 700 K), where formation of butenes is kinetically and thermodynamically more favorable than other complex and simple bond scission reactions.
