The kinetics of the gas phase reactions of NO 2 with a series of organics have been studied at 295 ± 2 K. It was observed that only 2,3‐dimethyl‐2‐butene and the conjugated dialkenes studied reacted at observable rates, with rate constants which ranged from 1.5 × 10 −20 cm 3 molecule −1 s −1 for 2,3‐dimethyl‐2‐butene to 1.3 × 10 −17 cm 3 molecule −1 s −1 for α‐phellandrene. These rate constants are compared with the available literature data and the mechanisms of these reactions are discussed.
