IR-MATRIX-SPECTROSCOPY OF THE OZONIDES REACTION: LINEAR REACTOR EXPERIMENTS

Author Institution: Laboratory for Physical Chemistry, ETH, Universit\""{a}tstrAn investigation of the gas phase ozonolysis reaction by means of a linear reactor Knudsen cell IR-matrix set-up is reported, By variation of the reactor length, flow and pressure of ozone, ethylene, and argon, a wide variation, of residence times is achieved, allowing the trapping of reaction species from various parts of the reaction sequence. A number of such species like CO, $H_{2}O$, $CO_{2}, HCOOH, H_{2}CO, (CHO)_{2}O$, but no ozonides have been identified from their matrix spectra
