Pyrolytic Reactions of Phenyl Radical in the Presenc e of Acetylene: Experimental Data
• Negligible formation of phenylacetylene
• BUT: considerable formation of naphthalene
• Phenylacetylene profiles conform to phenyl + acetyle ne recombination
• BUT: naphthalene profiles NOT conform to phenylacetyle ne + acetylene recombination
• Similar trends observed at a nominal pressure of 25 atm

Reaction Pathways to PM formation: Role of Aromatic Species
UICUNIVERSITYOF ILLINOISAT CHICAGO
Technical Objective : characterization of the pyrolytic reactions of the p henyl radical in the presence of acetylene over a wide ra nge of pressures (1 - 50 atm) and temperatures (1000 - 1700 K) as possible pathway to the formation of naphthalene
Summary Acknowledgments• Experiments on pyrolytic reactions of the phenyl rad ical in the presence of acetylene conducted over a wide range of pressures (1 - 50 atm) and temperature s (1000 - 1700 K) using two different experimental techniques.
• The experiments conducted at University Karlsruhe ind icate that at low pressure the recombination betwee n phenyl and acetylene does not lead to naphthalene formation.
• The experimental and theoretical work conducted at UIC shows that at high pressure acetylene is involv ed in the formation of the second-ring species, but the HACA mechanism is not the main pathway to naphthalene.
• Possibly alternative pathways to naphthalene format ion at high pressure exist.
