“…2‐Ethylfuran has been chosen for this study based on its role as a primary and secondary pollutant emitted into the atmosphere from both anthropogenic and biogenic sources . This alkylfuran also has potential to be a next‐generation biofuel based on the promising characteristics of the alkylfurans 2‐methylfuran and 2,5‐dimethylfuran .…”

“…The ionization energies obtained from this study match quite well those observed in this experiment. 2‐Methylfuran (2MF) already has a reported photoionization cross section; however, the PICS of its observed oxidation product, furfural, have not been reported as of this time. Furfural was chosen for this study based on its role as a high‐impact platform molecule used in the production of alternative biofuels .…”

“…[4,5] With novel production methods able to derive these compounds from biomass, [1,[6][7][8][9][10] these potential biofuels have a large enough source to be used on an industrial scale. While combustion [2,4,5,8,11,12] and decomposition studies [13][14][15] of furanic biofuels have been performed, many furanic derivatives have not been studied extensively.…”

Absolute photoionization cross sections of the molecules 2-ethylfuran, 2-acetylfuran and furfural, including partial ionization cross sections for the dissociative ionized fragments, are measured for the first time. These measurements are important because they allow fuel quantification via photoionization mass spectrometry and the development of quantitative kinetic modeling for the complex combustion of potential fuels. The experiments are carried out using synchrotron photoionization mass spectrometry with an orthogonal time-of-flight spectrometer used for mass analysis at the Advanced Light Source of Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory. The CBS-QB3 calculations of adiabatic ionization energies and appearance energies agree well with the experimental results. Several bond dissociation energies are also derived and presented.
