A Reinvestigation of Transients in the Cyclopropane System by the Variable Encounter Method.

Abstract

A reinvestigation of transients in cyclopropane vibrational relaxation by the Variable Encounter Method (VEM) has been made. Temperatures in the region 800 K to 1125 K were used. Concurrent study of cyclobutane was made. Results of earlier work in this series by Kelley, et al. are confirmed. The contribution to reaction R(n) as a function of number of collisions (n) is displayed, as well as the distribution of collisions f(n) in each reactor. A general comparison of all data in the literature is made. (Author)
