Abstract
A reaction oriented list of references is provided for papers and reports containing rate data for gas phase reactions of combustion and oxidation of aliphaic saturated or unsaturated C1 to C10 hydrocabons, alcholols, aldehydes, ketones, ethers, peroxides and their free radicals. The list also includes decomposition, disproportionation, atom transfer and recombination reactions of the oxygen containing species noted above. Pyrolytic reactions of hydrocarbons and their radicals are excluded. All the processes listed here have been reported to occur in the phase combustion of fuels. In addition, a list of critical reviews dealing with the reaction kinetics of the above processes and a list of papers dealing with generalized mechanisms of the same reactions are also included. More than 800 papers covering 540 reactions are listed. The period covered extends from 1902 through June 1975.
