✦ Synopsis
Under tropospheric conditions, the major alkoxy radical removal processes involve reaction with O 2 , unimolecular decomposition, and isomerization [1 -4]. The alkoxy radical isomerizations proceed by a cyclic transition state and, because of the ring strain involved, the 1,4-H shift isomerizations proceeding through a 5-member ring transition state are calculated to be much less important (by a factor of ca. 5 ϫ 10 3 at 298 K [6]) than the 1,5-H shift isomerizations proceeding through a 6-member, essentially strain-free, transition state . Eberhard et al. [7] observed no evidence for the 1,4-H shift isomerizations for the 2-and 3-hexoxy radicals, in agreement with predictions , and the 1,4-H shift isomerization reactions of alkoxy radicals are therefore neglected in the following discussion. For the 2-pentoxy radical, the decomposition and isomerization reactions and the reaction with O 2 are shown in Scheme I.
