Abstract
Linear free‐energy (LFE) correlations for gas phase O(^3^P) and OH addition and abstraction reactions with a number of organic compounds have been established using existing room‐temperature rate constants evaluated from the literature. Addition reaction rate constant correlations with ionization potential and abstraction reaction rate constant correlations with bond dissociation energies are examined and compared to the LFE approach. Using multiple regression analysis, empirical linear equations are derived and used to predict rate constants for reactions of O(^3^P) and OH with a number of organic molecules. The use of LFE room‐temperature rate predictions permits chemical modeling efforts to be extended to compounds where experimental determinations of rate coefficients are lacking and also serves as a useful tool in evaluation of experimental rate measurements.

Recently, Atkinson et al. [l] reported measurements on the reaction of ozone with a series of carbonyls. In that study a correlation between ozone addition and hydroxyl-radical addition reactions was employed to predict OH addition coefficients for acrolein and crotonaldehyde of approximately 2 X an
