Thermochemistry and kinetic pathways on the 2‐butanone‐4‐yl (CH 3 C(=O)CH 2 CH 2 •) + O 2 reaction system are determined. Standard enthalpies, entropies, and heat capacities are evaluated using the G3MP2B3, G3, G3MP3, CBS‐QB3 ab initio methods, and the B3LYP/6‐311g(d,p) density functional calculation method. The CH 3 C(=O)CH 2 CH 2 • radical + O 2 association reaction forms a chemically activated peroxy radical with 35 kcal mol −1 excess of energy. The chemically activated adduct can undergo RO−O bond dissociation, rearrangement via intramolecular hydrogen transfer reactions to form hydroperoxide‐alkyl radicals, or eliminate HO 2 and OH. The hydroperoxide‐alkyl radical intermediates can undergo further reactions forming ketones, cyclic ethers, OH radicals, ketene, formaldehyde, or oxiranes. A relatively new path showing a low barrier and resulting in reactive product sets involves peroxy radical attack on a carbonyl carbon atom in a cyclic transition state structure. It is shown to be important in ketones when the cyclic transition state has five or more central atoms.
