Abstract
We investigated thermal stability improvement of exo-tetrahydrodicyclopentadiene (exo-THDCP) with thermal stabilizers (additives). The reaction products were sample during the reactions. The compositions of products were determined by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) to measure thermal decomposition products of exo-THDCP and to specify mechanism for thermal stabilizers. Hydrogen donors (thermal stabilizers) such as 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoline (THQ), benzyl alcohol (BnOH) increased thermal stability of exo-THDCP. These materials donated hydrogen to radical of exo-THDCP produced after initiation of exo-THDCP. We found that stabilization of exo-THDCP radicals decreased activity of primary products of exo-THDCP and lowered formation of secondary products (above-$C_{11}$ products).
