Biodiesel is a fuel formed by methyl esters with large carbon chains. The investigation of the hydrogen abstraction reactions of small methyl esters can be helpful to the improvement and development of kinetics models of biodiesel combustion. For this reason, the present study aims to study the thermochemistry and kinetics of hydrogen abstraction of methyl ethanoate using DFT methods and transition state theory. The abstraction reactions by O2, O, HO2, and H were studied with the B3LYP-D3 and M06-2X functionals with cc-pVDZ, ccpVTZ, aug-cc-pVDZ, and aug-cc-pVTZ basis set. At 298 K, the rate coefficients evaluated are in good agreement with the literature’s coefficients and the faster reaction occurs in the presence of O atoms. The hydrogen abstraction by O2 molecule it is not important at 298 K, but should be included in the present study since it should be important at higher temperatures.

We study the chemical kinetics of hydrogen addition reactions of unsaturated methyl esters, methyl 2-butenoate and methyl 3-butenoate, and compare the rate constants with those of hydrogen abstraction reactions by H atom.
