A comprehensive, chemically detailed mechanism for the combustion of 2-methyl-2-butene andn-pentane is presented to provide insights into the different sooting tendencies of these two structurally different C5hydrocarbons. A hierarchically assembled mechanism has been developed to specifically target speciation data from low-pressure premixed flames of 2-methyl-2-butene [Ruwe et al., Combust. Flame, 175, 34-46, 2017] and newly measured mole fraction data for a fuel-rich (ɸ=1.8)n-pentane flame, in which species profiles up to phenol were quantified. The partially isomer-resolved chemical composition of this flame was determined using flame-sampling molecular-beam mass spectrometry with single-photon ionization by tunable, synchrotron-generated vacuum-ultraviolet radiation. The presented model, which includes a newly determined, consistent set of the thermochemistry data for the C5species, presents overall satisfactory capabilities to predict the mole fraction profiles of common combustion intermediates. The analysis of the model predictions revealed the fuel-structure dependencies (i.e.saturatedvs.unsaturated and linearvs.branched) of the formation of small aromatic species that are considered as soot precursors. The propensity of the 2-methyl-2-butene flame to form larger concentrations of aromatic species was traced back to the readily available formation routes of several small precursor molecules and the efficient formation of “first aromatic rings” beyond benzene.
