Thermal decomposition of 1,1,2,2-tetramethylcyclopropane in a single-pulse shock tube

1,1,2,2-Tetramethylcyclopropane (TTMC) has been decomposed in a single-pulse shock tube. The main reaction process is Side reactions are unimportant. From comparative rate experiments (with cyclohexene decomposition as standard) the rate expression for these reactions are These numbers are consistent with a «best» value for cyclohexene decomposition of
