The formation of small polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and their precursors can be strongly affected by reactions of C5 species. For improving existing combustion mechanisms for small PAH formation, it is therefore valuable to understand the fuel-specific chemistry of C5 fuels. To this end, we provide quantitative isomer-resolved species profiles measured in a laminar premixed (ϕ = 1.8) low-pressure (4 kPa) flame of 1-Pentene (cas 109-67-1) with photoionization molecular-beam mass spectrometry (PI-MBMS) using tunable synchrotron vacuum-ultraviolet (VUV) radiation. These experimental results are accompanied with numerical simulations, starting from models from the literature by Wang et al. [JetSurF version 2.0 (2010)] and Healy et al. [Energy Fuels 24 (2010) 1521–1528] that were developed for different fuels, but which include 1-pentene as an intermediate, and by Narayanaswamy et al. [Combust. Flame 157 (2010) 1879–1898] focusing on the small PAH chemistry. Taking observed discrepancies between experimental results and simulations into consideration, a mechanism for C5 chemistry was newly developed including PAH formation pathways, and its performance analyzed in detail. Special emphasis was placed on the initial fuel consumption of 1-pentene as well as on formation pathways of small aromatics. The mechanisms show differences regarding fuel decomposition and hydrocarbon growth reactions. These contribute to noticeable differences between the simulations with different models on one hand, and deviations between model predictions and experimental results on the other. While the new model presents overall satisfactory capabilities to predict the mole fraction profiles of common combustion intermediates, the predictive capability of the literature models was not fully satisfying for some intermediate species, including C4H6, C7H8, and C10H8. The results indicate that the fuel-specific C5 reaction routes as well as the mechanism for small PAH formation need further investigation.
