Laser-induced fluorescence excitation spectra of five vibronic bands of 1-hexoxy and three bands of 1-heptoxy have been recorded in a jet-cooled environment. Experimental values of rotational constants for both the X and B states and components of the spin-rotational tensor for the X state were obtained by an analysis of the partially resolved rotational structure of the vibronic bands. Comparing these experimental results with quantum chemistry calculations, and using corresponding assignments of smaller alkoxy radicals as a guide, permitted unambiguous conformational assignments for the bands. The extension of similar assignments to larger alkoxy radicals is also discussed.
Rate constants for the reactions of C2H5O, i-C3H7O, and n-C3H7O with NO and O2 as a function of temperature

The rate constants of the reactions of ethoxy, i-propoxy and n-propoxy radicals with O2 and NO was investigated as function temperature. The radicals were generated by laser photolysis from the appropriate alkyl nitrite and characterized by laser-induced fluorescence. For the reactions with O2, the ethoxy radical reacted somewhat slower than recently recommended. The values obtained for i- and n-propoxy had been combined with the measurements from a recent study at lower temperatures, allowing a more reliable determination of the Arrhenius parameters.

The reactions of C2H5OH (1), C2H5OD (2), C2D5OD (3), 1-C3H7OH (4), 2-C3H7OH (5), 2-C3H7OD (6) with F atoms and the reactions of C2H5OH (7), 1-C3H7OH (8), 1-C3H7OD (9), 2-C3H7OD (10) with Cl atoms have been studied in a discharge flow reactor and a Laval nozzle reactor at room temperature and at pressures of a few mbar.Samples of the reaction mixtures were withdrawn continuously by a molecular beam device and analyzed by a mass spectrometer.The rates of the reactions were measured relative to the standard reactions C2H6 + F (0) and C2H6 + Cl (00) yielding k1/k0 = 1.06 , k2/k0 = 1.25, k3/k0 = 1.20, k4/k0 = 1.26, k5/k0 = 1.06, k6/k0 = 1.20, k7/k00 = 2, k9/k00 = 4.For the reactions of F atoms with alcohols the probability of attack at one of the alkyl H atoms was found to be five times less than at the hydroxyl H atom site.For the reaction of Cl atoms with alcohols no abstraction from the OH group was observed, the abstraction from the alkyl groups follows the thermodynamically favoured route by forming mainly secondary radicals. - Keywords: Chemical Kinetics / Elementary Reactions / Isotope Effects / Mass Spectrometry
