Homogeneous and heterogeneous reactions of the n-C5H11O, n-C5H10OH and OOC5H10OH radicals in oxygen. Analytical steady state solution by use of the Laplace transform
TL;DR: In this paper, different reaction routes of n-pentoxy radicals in O2/N2 mixtures were investigated in the temperature range 423-523 K under atmospheric pressure, and the results showed that isomerization is the predomi-nant reaction route, accounting for the diversity of end products.
