The high-temperature pyrolysis of benzene, 1 and 2 mol% in krypton, has been studied in the shock tube with the laser-schlieren technique over 1900-2400 K and 0.2-1.0 atm. A completelysuccessful modeling of the density gradient profiles and some time-of-flight mass spectra is achieved with a simple radical chain mechanism consisting of essentially just four reactions. The dissociation is solely CH bond scission ()+ C6H6-* C6H5++(M) whose rates are strongly dependent on both temperature and pressure in this range; this reaction is near second order for T> 2300 K. An RRKM fit to these data suggests a barrier of 112±2 kcal/mol, which corresponds to AHfm= 80±2 kcal/mol for the phenyl radical heat of formation, and an average collisional energy transfer of (-AE) all= 70 cm" 1 11. The extrapolated for this reaction is 2 X 1017 exp (-l 18000 (cal)/RT) s" 1 (1900-2400 K). The model also indicates a rate constant of 2.5 X 1014 exp (-16000 (cal)/RT) cm3/(mol s)(1900-2200 K) for the abstraction H+ C6H6— C6H5+ H2.Benzene pyrolysis hasan obvious importance derivingfrom the molecule’s common appearance in fuels, as well as in the products and feedstocks of pyrolytic olefin production. The aromatic ring also carries a unique stability and may well play a major role in soot formation. 1 As a consequence this pyrolysis has been ex-tensively studied over a rather broad range of conditions and by a variety of methods.
