Abstract: The ultraviolet spectra of the alkyl peroxy radicals, CH3O2 and C(CH3)3O2, have been obtained using flash photolysis with photoelectric recording. They are in good agreement with those found using molecular modulation spectroscopy. The overall rates of the “mutual” reactions: 2CH3O2→ products (3), and 2C(CH3)3O2→ products (4) also agree very well with rates found previously. Two other reactions of importance in low temperature oxidation have been studied. A lower limit of 10–12 cm3 molecule–1 s–1 was found for the rate constants of the overall reactions of CH3O2 and of C(CH3)3O2 with NO. The rate constant for the reaction between OH and t-butyl hydro-peroxide was found to be (3.0 ± 0.8)× 10–12 cm3 molecule–1 s–1 at room temperature.
