Reaction Kinetics of CN + Toluene and Its Implication on the Production of Aromatic Nitriles in the Taurus Molecular Cloud and Titan’s Atmosphere

Reactions between cyano radicals and aromatic hydrocarbons are believed to be important pathways for the formation of aromatic nitriles in the interstellar medium (ISM) including those identified in the Taurus molecular cloud (TMC-1). Aromatic nitriles might participate in the formation of polycycli...
