Diethoxymethane (DEM, C2H5-OCH2O-C2H5), a carbon-neutral fuel, was investigated in this work for the low-temperature oxidation mechanism. The reaction potential energy surfaces (PESs) of three different DEM radicals reacting with O 2 were explored at the CBS-QB3//M062x/6-311 ++G(d,p) level. The rate con-stants of the relevant reactions were calculated by the master equation according to the Rice-Ramsperger-Kassel-Marcus (RRKM) theory combined with transition state theory. The modified Arrhenius equation has been utilized to fit the temperature-and pressure-dependent reaction rate constants. The main re-action channels were discussed, the generation of initial adducts and intramolecular H-transfer reactions are essential for low-temperature combustion. Among them, the H-transfer reaction via a six-member ring transition state requires a low energy barrier to be overcome. The subsequent dissociation reactions are dominated by OH-loss and beta-scission reactions, with the former being more favorable in most cases. Additionally, the calculated data were incorporated into the DEM combustion model. The modified model shows a great agreement with experimentally measured data on ignition delay times in shock tube and has different predictions for the mole fraction of several important products compared with the original model. The present work provides support for further study of DEM oxidation reactions.(c) 2023 The Combustion Institute. Published by Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
