Abstract:
The kinetic interactions between fuel molecules and nitrogen dioxide (NO2) play a central role in fuel ignition and combustion characteristics in advanced combustion engines equipped with exhaust gas recirculation (EGR). This study presents the first theoretical calculations to unravel the interaction chemistry between methyl esters and the methyl ethers and NO2. High-level ab initio kinetic calculations were carried out to investigate H-atom abstraction reactions from C2-C5 saturated methyl esters by NO2. Five small molecule esters, including methyl formate, methyl ethanoate, methyl propanoate, methyl butanoate, and methyl iso-butanoate, were considered, encompassing 42 distinct H-atom abstraction reaction channels. The CCSD(T)/CBS//M06-2X/6-311++G(d,p) level of theory was employed to calculate the potential energy surfaces. The conventional transition state theory was adopted to calculate the rate coefficients within a temperature range of 400-2000 K. The effect of fuel molecular structures was analyzed via a systematic comparison. The rate rules for H-atom abstraction reactions from different carbon sites of methyl esters were proposed. The rate coefficients reported in this study are beneficial for developing reliable combustion kinetic models for methyl esters or real biodiesel interactions with nitrogen oxides.

SN2 Reaction: Kinetics
In a chemical reaction, a relationship exists between the concentration of reactants and the rate at which the reaction proceeds. The study to measure this relationship is known as the kinetics of a chemical reaction. Kinetic studies are used to deduce the rate law of a chemical reaction, which provides information about the species involved during the transition state of the rate-determining step. Thus, kinetic studies help to derive the mechanism of a...

Nucleophilic Substitution Reactions
In 1896, the German chemist Paul Walden discovered that he could interconvert pure enantiomeric (+) and (-) malic acids through a series of reactions. This conversion suggested the involvement of optical inversion during the substitution reaction. Further, in 1930, Sir Christopher Ingold described for the first time two different forms of nucleophilic substitution reactions, which are known as SN1 (nucleophilic substitution unimolecular) and SN2 (nucleophilic substitution...
