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.
