## Abstract The rate constants of the gas‐phase reaction of OH radicals with __trans__‐2‐hexenal, __trans__‐2‐octenal, and __trans__‐2‐nonenal were determined at 298 ± 2 K and atmospheric pressure using the relative rate technique. Two reference compounds were selected for each rate constant determ

✦ Synopsis
The relative OH reaction rates from the simulated atmospheric oxidation of 4-methyl-2pentanone, trans-4-octene, and trans-2-heptene have been measured. Reactions were carried out at 297 t 2 K in 100-liter FEP Teflon"-film bags. The OH radicals were produced from the photolysis of methyl nitrite. The measured rate constants (X10" cm3 molecule-' s-l) were as follows: 6.77 t 0.50 for trans-4-octene, 1.40 t 0.07 for 4-methyl-2-pentanone, and 6.70 -t 0.23 for trans-2-heptene using an absolute rate constant of 2.63 X 10" cm3 molecule-' s-' for the reaction of OH with propene; the principal reference organic.
