The kinetics of ethane oxidation was studied at 320, 340, 353 and 380°C, mixture composition 2 C 2 H 6 + 1 O 2 , and total pressure 609 torr. It was found that at 320°C CH 2 O and CH 3 CHO were branching agents. A series of experiments was conducted on 2C 2 H 6 + O 2 oxidation in the presence of 0.7% 14 C‐labeled ethylene. The ethylene oxide was found to form only from C 2 H 4 , formaldehyde formed from C 2 H 4 and C 2 H 6 ; and CH 3 CHO, C 2 H 5 OH, and CH 3 OH formed only from ethane. The formation rates of C 2 H 4 , C 2 H 4 O, and CH 2 O were calculated by the kinetic tracer method. At 320°C the fraction of oxygen‐containing products formed from C 2 H 4 was 16–18%, and at 353 and 380°C it was 30–40%.
