On the Mechanism of Soot Nucleation. III. The Fate and Facility of the E-Bridge
Rotationally-excited dimerization of aromatic moieties is a mechanism proposed recently to explain the initial steps of soot particle inception in combustion and pyrolysis of hydrocarbons. The product of such dimerization, termed E-bridge, is an angled molecular structure composed of two aromatic rings sharing a common bond. The present study explores the immediate fate of the E-bridge. The performed theoretical analysis indicates that abstraction of a bridge H atom by a gaseous H leads to a rapid transformation of the angled to planar structure. The implications of this result is that the collisionally-activated E-bridge formation followed by its flattening effectively increases the size of “planar” aromatic precursors by combining two aromatic moieties with essentially collisional rates, instead of a slower “atom-by-atom” buildup. The faster growth speeds up PAH reaching a size when physical dimerization takes over. Furthermore, the dimerization can be further assisted by the biradicaloid valence structure of the flattened E-bridge.
