Abstract: The product formation of the reaction of C2H3 radical with NO2 was studied in the gas phase under 2.66×103 Pa total pressure and 298 K. C2H3 radical was generated by laser photolysis of C2H3Br/Ar mixture. In the presence of nitric dioxide (NO2), the formation of OH radicals of the electronic ground states was monitored by laser-induced fluorescence. From the results of time resolved measurements of the OH radical concentrations, bimolecular rate constants for the reactions C2H3＋NO2 and OH(X 2Π)＋NO2 were determined as k(C2H3＋NO2)=(1.8±0.05)×10－11 cm3•molec.－1•s－1 and k(OH＋NO2)=(2.1±0.15)×10－12 cm3•molec.－1•s－1.

Key words: C2H3 radical, Laser-induced fluorescence, Rate constant of reaction
