Hydroxyl radicals, generated by photolysis of H2O2. were reacted with n-pentane and isopentane in air in the absence of nitrogen oxides. The observed product distributions were compared with similar data derived by computer simulations, based on the known reaction mechanisms, to determine relative probabilities for hydrogen abstraction at different sites of the parent compounds and to estimate branching ratios and relative rate coefficients for cross-combination reactions between different peroxy radicals. For n-pentane. the distribution of the pentanols indicates probabilities for hydrogen abstraction, in percent, of q1= 9.1 ± 0.7. q 2 = 56.1 ± 1.8, and q3 = 34.8 ± 1.3. which agree with predictions based on the algorithm proposed by Atkinson. Branching ratios needed to harmonize calculated and observed product distributions are somewhat larger than, although still within the error ranges of. the values found by us previously Comparison between experimental and calculated data confirms the isomerization and decomposition constants recently established for the three pentoxyl radical isomers. The product distribution for isopentane. which is dominated by acetone, acetaldehyde. 2-methyl-butan-2-ol. and 2-methyl-butan-2-hydroperoxide, is in harmony with the predicted oxidation mechanism. Probabilities for hydrogen abstraction from isopentane were estimated to occur to 12% at the primary. 28% at the secondary, and 60% at the tertiary sites, again in agreement with predictions based on the algorithm of Atkinson.
