Multi-structural variational kinetics study on hydrogen abstraction reactions of Alkylated Cyclohexanes by Hydroxyl Radical — from theoretical kinetics to modeling implications
Hydrogen abstraction by radicals from alkylated cycloalkanes is a fundamental reaction in combustion and atmospheric chemistry. This study investigates the reaction kinetics of four representative cycloalkanes, methylcyclohexane (MCH), ethylcyclohexane (ECH), n-propylcyclohexane (nPCH), and 1,3,5-trimethylcyclohexane (T135MCH), with hydroxyl (ȮH) radicals over a wide temperature range (200 – 2000 K). High-level quantum chemical calculations are performed using the multi-structural canonical variational transition state theory with small-curvature tunneling (MS-CVT/SCT) method, employing the M05-2X/MG3S density functional, which is validated against CCSD(T)-F12a/jun-cc-pVDZ benchmark calculations. The anharmonicity effects exert a pronounced influence on reaction rates, followed by notable contributions from recrossing effects, while tunneling effects remain minor at combustion relevant temperatures. Fuel molecular effects on site-specific reactions are identified, which show that simple analogy is unreliable between single- and multi-side-chain cycloalkanes, or among cycloalkanes with varying side-chain lengths. The branching ratios indicate the predominant role of tertiary carbon site at low temperatures, with distinct secondary carbon site becoming more competitive as temperature increases. To demonstrate the effects of the calculated rate constants on predicting ignition delay times from shock tube (ST) and rapid compression machine (RCM) experiments and fuel concentrations from a jet-stirred reactor (JSR) using existing fuel kinetic models, the calculated rate constants are updated and applied to the corresponding models. Analysis results show that these investigated reactions are crucial during low-temperature oxidation processes of alkylated cyclohexanes, leading to longer ignition delay times and improved predictions of specific fuel concentrations with the various updated models.
