Abstract

The mechanism of the OH‐initiated oxidation of β‐pinene in the presence of NO has been investigated using a discharge‐flow system at 5 Torr and 300 K. OH radical concentrations were measured as a function of reaction time by laser‐induced fluorescence (LIF). The rate constant for the OH +β‐pinene reaction was measured to be (7.68 ± 0.72) ×10^−11^ cm^3^ molecule^−1^ s^−1^. OH radical propagation was observed after the addition of O~2~ and NO, and the measured OH concentration profiles were compared to simulations based on both the Master Chemical Mechanism and the Regional Atmospheric Chemistry Mechanism for β‐pinene oxidation in order to determine the ability of these mechanisms to describe the observed efficiency of radical propagation. Both models are able to reproduce the observed OH concentrations profiles to within 15%. Expanding the MCM to include isomerization of the β‐hydroxy alkoxy radicals improves the agreement with the experimental observations. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

We have studied the reaction mechanism for both the NO 3 -and OH-initiated atmospheric oxidation of three cresol isomers, p-cresol, m-cresol, and o -cresol, in the presence of high NO 2 concentration. We have focused on the reaction mechanism leading to ringretaining products. Geometries of the reac

## Abstract Recently, we have discovered the unusual inverse temperature dependence of the kinetic isotope effect (KIE) for the OH + __c__‐C~6~H~12~/__c__‐C~6~D~12~ reaction in water. Temperature increase causes a KIE increase; this is valid for both the Fenton system (I) and the HOONOH~2~O system
