Kinetics of the Reactions of Cl Atoms with Several Ethers
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The reactions of Cl with tetrahydrofuran, tetrahydropyran, and dimethyl ether have been studied as a function of temperature, pressure, and O(2) concentration. The temperature was varied from approximately 280 to 360 K, the mole fraction of O(2) ranged from zero to approximately 0.6, and the experiments were made in a bath of argon at total pressures ranging from approximately 300 to 760 Torr. The rate coefficients were measured using the relative rate method with gas chromatographic analysis. The reaction of Cl with isobutane was the reference reaction, the rate coefficients for which were calibrated against the reaction of propane with chlorine atoms as a function of temperature. The rate coefficients were unaffected by the concentration of O(2) or by variation in pressure. The rate coefficient for the reaction of Cl with isobutane increased slightly with decreasing temperature. This weak temperature dependence of the rate coefficient was in satisfactory agreement with information in the literature and is represented in Arrhenius form by k(T) = (1.02(-0.25)(+0.32)) x 10(-10) exp(99 +/- 88/T) cm(3) molecule(-1) s(-1), where the uncertainties represent two standard deviations. The rate coefficients for the reactions of Cl with the ethers did not show a statistically significant dependence on temperature. Their average values over our range of temperature are: for Cl + tetrahydrofuran, k = (2.71 +/- 0.34) x 10(-10) cm(3) molecule(-1) s(-1); for Cl + tetrahydropyran, k = (2.03 +/- 0.82) x 10(-10) cm(3) molecule(-1) s(-1); and for Cl + dimethyl ether, k = (1.73 +/- 0.22) x 10(-10) cm(3) molecule(-1) s(-1), in which the uncertainties are again two standard deviations.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
