New CO and H2O time histories were measured for 2-Methyl-1-Butene (2M1B) behind reflected shock waves. The experimental setup was developed to simultaneously obtain carbon monoxide water from the oxidation of 2M1B in 99.5% He/Ar (20% He 79.5% Ar). experiments carried out at three different equivalence ratios (? = 0.5, 1.0, 2.0) pressures temperatures ranging 1.15 atm 1.32 1414 K 1894 K, respect...

The title compound, C(17)H(16)O(5), is a previously unreported substituted semibulvalene cage compound (that is, a tricyclic hydro-carbon formed from one cyclo-propane and two cyclo-pentene rings which also has one double bond fused to a benzene ring). It has one meth-oxy substituent attached to the bridgehead C atom that links only the two cyclo-pentene rings and two methyl carboxyl-ate groups...
