The effect of the presence of nitrogen, oxygen, and nitric oxide on the reaction between cis-2-pentene and oxygen atoms has been investigated at room temperature (25 ± 2 °C). For production of oxygen atoms use was made of mercury-photosensitized decomposition of nitrous oxide and of the photolysis of nitrogen dioxide at 3660 Å.In the N2O work, the presence of molecular oxygen induced the formation of acetaldehyde, propanal, methanol, and ethanol. In the NO2 work, the amounts of acetaldehyde, propanal, and ethyl nitrate formed increased rapidly with increasing pressure of molecular oxygen. Possible reaction mechanisms for the formation of these compounds are discussed.Additional information was obtained on the pressure-independent fragmentation in the reaction of oxygen atoms with cis-2-pentene.

The kinetics of a number of gaseous oxidation reactions have been investigated, using nitrous oxide as the oxidizing agent in place of oxygen. It is found that, in general, nitrous oxide is much less efficient as an oxidizing agent than is molecular oxygen. Nitrous oxide in most cases acts merely as a reservoir of atomic oxygen at temperatures where its rate of decomposition is appreciable.
