Alpha-dicarbonyl yields from the NOx-air photooxidations of a series of aromatic hydrocarbons in air
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:5365772
The yields of the ring-cleavage products glyoxal, methylglyoxal and biacetyl from the reactions of OH radicals with benzene, toluene, o-, m- and p-xylene and 1,2,3-, 1,2,4- and 1,3,5-trimethylbenzene in the presence of part-per-million concentrations of NO have been determined in one atmosphere of air using in-situ long pathlength Fourier-transform infrared absorption spectroscopy and differential optical absorption spectroscopy with supplementary gas-chromatographic analyses. The yields of glyoxal and methylglyoxal were respectively: from toluene, 0.105 plus or minus 0.019 and 0.146 plus or minus 0.006; from o-xylene, 0.087 plus or minus 0.012 and 0.246 plus or minus 0.020; from m-xylene, 0.086 plus or minus 0.011 and 0.319 plus or minus 0.009; from p-xylene, 0.225 plus or minus 0.039 and 0.105 plus or minus 0.034; from 1,2,3-trimethylbenzene, 0.058 plus or minus 0.008 and 0.152 plus or minus 0.025; and from 1,2,4-trimethylbenzene, 0.048 plus or minus 0.005 and 0.357 plus or minus 0.017.
