Reaction of OH radicals with CH₃NH₂ in the gas phase: experimental (11.7–177.5 K) and computed rate coefficients (10–1000 K)

Abstract

The reaction of OH radicals with CH 3 NH 2 has been observed to be very fast at interstellar temperatures ( T < 100 K) forming CH 3 NH radicals as the main reaction product. At T > 300 K, the formation yields of CH 3 NH and CH 2 NH 2 radicals are similar.
