The thermal decomposition of propene behind reflected shock waves with 1200 < T 5 < 1800 K and 1.6 × 10 −5 < ρ 5 < 2.7 × 10 −5 mol/cm 3 was studied by IR laser kinetic absorption spectroscopy and gas‐chromatographic analysis of reaction products. The present data together with earlier shock tube data were satisfactorily modeled with a 51‐reaction mechanism. As the initial step of the reaction, three channels, C 3 H 6 = CH 3 + C 2 H 3 (1), C 3 H 6 = H + AC 3 H 5 (2), and C 3 H 6 = CH 4 + C 2 H 2 (3), were necessary to interpret all the experimental data. © John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
