Mechanism for the reaction of hydroxyl radicals with dimethyl disulfide

Strong infrared chemiluminescence from the reactions of OH and OD radicals with CH 3SSCH 3 was observed in a discharge flow reactor viewed by a Fourier transform spectrometer. The recorded spectra were identical to the H 2O and HDO plus D 2O emission spectra from the OH+CH 3SH and OD+CH 3SD reaction...

Description
Summary:Strong infrared chemiluminescence from the reactions of OH and OD radicals with CH 3SSCH 3 was observed in a discharge flow reactor viewed by a Fourier transform spectrometer. The recorded spectra were identical to the H 2O and HDO plus D 2O emission spectra from the OH+CH 3SH and OD+CH 3SD reactions, respectively. These observations strongly suggest that the primary reaction in the OH and OD+CH 3SSCH 3 system generates CH 3SH and CH 3SD molecules with the observed emission arising from the OH+CH 3SH and OD+CH 3SD secondary reactions.
