An average of Rohrig, M., Petersen, E.L., Davidson, D.F., Hanson, R.K., and Bowman C.T. (1997) Int. J. Chem. Kinet. 29, 781; and Markus, M.W., Roth, P., and Just, Th. (1996) Int. J. Chem. Kinet. 28, 171.

COMMENTS:

Served as an optimization variable in the GRI-Mech 2.1 release; the rate coefficient was not changed.

The revised rate constant for version 3.0 served as an optimization variable. The rate coefficient is 0.79 times the starting value.
