| Abstract: | The reaction of ozone with unsaturated aliphatic oxygenates has been studied at ambient T (287–297 K) and p = 1 atm. of air (RH = 55 ± 10%) with sufficient cyclohexane added to scavenge the hydroxyl radical. Reaction rate constants, in units of 10-18 cm3 molecule-1 s-1, are 10.7 ± 1.4 for methyl trans-3-methoxy acrylate, 63.7 ± 9.9 for 4-hexen-3-one (predominantly the trans isomer), 125 ± 17 for trans-4-methoxy-3-buten-2-one,  148 ± 13 for cis-4-heptenal, 439 ± 37 for 3- methyl-2-buten-1-ol and 585 ± 132 for (cis + trans)-ethyl 1-propenyl ether. The influence of the oxygen-containing substituents on reactivity toward ozone is examined. Unsaturated ethers react with ozone faster than their alkene structural homologues; the reverse is observed for unsaturated esters and unsaturated carbonyls. Major reaction products have been identified by liquid chromatography with ultraviolet detection (LC-UV), particle beam-mass spectrometry (PB- MS) and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and are methyl formate and methyl glyoxylate from methyl trans-3-methoxy acrylate, acetaldehyde and 2-oxobutanal from 4-hexen-3-one, propanal and succinic dialdehyde from cis-4-heptenal, hydroxyacetaldehyde and acetone from 3-methyl-2-buten-1-ol, and ethyl formate and acetaldehyde from (cis + trans)-ethyl 1-propenyl ether. PB-MS and GC- MS were also employed to identify new reaction products and to confirm the structure of products tentatively identified in a previous study of the reaction of ozone with five unsaturated oxygenates (Grosjean and Grosjean, 1997a): formic acid and methyl glyoxylate from methyl acrylate, formic acid and formic acetic anhydride from vinyl acetate, 2-oxoethyl acetate and 3-oxopropyl acetate from cis-3-hexenyl acetate, ethyl formate and formic acid from ethyl vinyl ether, and methyl formate from trans-4-methoxy-3- buten-2-one. The nature and formation yields of the reaction products are consistent with (and supportive of) the reaction mechanism: O3 + R1R2C=CR3X   (R1COR2 + R3C(X)OO) + (1 - )(R3COX + R1C(R2)OO), where R1, R2 and R3 = H or alkyl, X is the oxygen-containing substituent, R1COR2 and R3COX are the primary products and R1C(R2)OO and R3C(X)OO are the carbonyl oxide biradicals. The variations of the coefficient , which ranges from 0.25 to 0.61, are discussed in terms of the number and nature of alkyl and oxygen-containing substituents. Subsequent reactions of the alkyl-substituted biradicals R1C(R2)OO and of the biradicals R3C(X)OO that bear the oxygen-containing substituent are discussed. For the biradical CH3CHOO, the ratio ka/kb for the competing pathways of rearrangement to acetic acid (CH3CHOO CH3C(O)OH, reaction (a) and formation of an unsaturated hydroperoxide (CH3CHOO CH2=CH(OOH), reaction (b) is <0.25 for ethyl 1-propenyl ether and <0.27 for 4-hexen-3-one. Concentrations measured in co- located samples, one downstream of a water impinger and the other without water impinger, show the uptake in water impingers to be high (from 83.2 to >99.9%) and comparable to that for formaldehyde (98.4%) for formic acetic anhydride and for difunctional oxygenated compounds. Uptake in water impingers was lower (19–78%) for monofunctional aldehydes and ketones. |
