Gas-phase ozonolysis of α-pinene was studied in static chamber experiments under 'OH-free' conditions. A range of multifunctional products-in particular low-volatility carboxylic acids-were identified in the condensed phase using gas chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry after derivatisation. The dependence of product yields on reaction conditions (humidity, choice of OH radical scavengers, added Criegee intermediate scavengers, NO2etc.) was investigated to probe the mechanisms of formation of these products; additional information was obtained by studying the ozonolysis of an enal and an enone derived from α-pinene. On the basis of experimental findings, previously suggested mechanisms were evaluated and detailed gas-phase mechanisms were developed to explain the observed product formation. Atmospheric implications of this work are discussed. the Owner Societies.

A series of smog chamber experiments have been conducted in which five cyclic monoterpenes were oxidized by ozone. The evolved secondary aerosol was analyzed by GC-MS and HPLC-MS for nonvolatile polar oxidation products with emphasis on the identification of carboxylic acids. Three classes of compounds were determined at concentration levels corresponding to low percentage molar yields: i.e. dicarboxylic acids, oxocarboxylic acids, and hydroxyketocarboxylic acids. Carboxylic acids are highly polar and have lower vapor pressures than their corresponding aldehydes and may thus play an important role in secondary organic aerosol formation processes. The most abundant carboxylic acids were the following: cis-pinic acid AB1 (cis-3- carboxy-2,2-dimethylcyclobutylethanoic acid) from α-and β-pinene; cis- pinonic acid A3 (cis-3-acetyl-2,2-dimethylcyclobutylethanoic acid) and cis- 10-hydroxypinonic acid AB6 (cis-2,2-dimethyl-3- hydroxyacetylcyclobutylethanoic acid) from α-pinene and β-pinene; cis-3- caric acid C1 (cis-2,2-dimethyl-1,3-cyclopropyldiethanoic acid), cis-3- caronic acid C3 (2,2-dimethyl-3-(2-oxopropyl)cyclopropanylethanoic acid), and cis-10-hydroxy-3-caronic acid C6 (cis-2,2-dimethyl-3-(hydroxy-2- oxopropyl)cyclopropanylethanoic acid) from 3-carene; cis-sabinic acid S1 (cis-2-carboxy-1-isopropylcyclopropylethanoic acid) from sabinene; limonic acid L1 (3-isopropenylhexanedioic acid), limononic acid L3 (3-isopropenyl-6- oxo-heptanoic acid), 7-hydroxylimononic acid L6 (3-isopropenyl-7-hydroxy-6- oxoheptanoic acid), and 7-hydroxylimononic acid L6' (7-hydroxy-3-isopropenyl- 6-oxoheptanoic acid) from limonene.
