Oxidation Mechanism of Aromatic Peroxy and Bicyclic Radicals from OH−Toluene Reactions

Suh, Inseon, Zhang, Renyi, Molina, Luisa T., Molina, Mario J.·2003·Journal of the American Chemical Society

Abstract

Theoretical calculations have been performed to investigate mechanistic features of OH-initiated oxidation reactions of toluene. Aromatic peroxy radicals arising from initial OH and subsequent O(2) additions to the toluene ring are shown to cyclize to form bicyclic radicals rather than undergoing reaction with NO under atmospheric conditions. Isomerization of bicyclic radicals to more stable epoxide radicals possesses significantly higher barriers and, hence, has slower rates than O(2) addition to form bicyclic peroxy radicals. At each OH attachment site, only one isomeric pathway via the bicyclic peroxy radical is accessible to lead to ring cleavage. The study provides thermochemical and kinetic data for quantitative assessment of the photochemical production potential of ozone and formation of toxic products and secondary organic aerosol from toluene oxidation.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
