Baasandorj, D.K. Papanastasiou, R.K. Talukdar, A.S. Hasson, J.B. Burkholder Title: (CH3)3COOH (tert-butyl hydroperoxide): OH reaction rate coefficients between 206 and 375 K and the OH photolysis quantum yield at 248 nm Journal/Source: Phys. Chem. Chem. Phys., 12, 12101-12111, (2010); DOI: 10.1039/C0CP00463D Data: table, diagram Energy/Wavelength range: 210 - 300 nm Resolution: Temperature: 296 K Temperature dependence: Pressure/Concentration: Phase: gas pH: Comments: UV absorption cross sections of (CH3)3COOH were determined at 185, 214, 228, and 254 nm and over the wavelength range 210-300 nm. The OH quantum yield following the 248 nm pulsed laser photolysis of (CH3)3COOH was measured relative to the OH quantum yields of H2O2 and HNO3 using PLP-LIF and found to be near unity.
