Unimolecular Decay of Criegee Intermediates to OH Radical Products: Prompt and Thermal Decay Processes
Abstract
Alkene ozonolysis is a primary oxidation pathway for anthropogenic and biogenic alkenes emitted into the troposphere. It is also an important source of atmospheric hydroxyl (OH) radicals, often called the atmosphere's detergent. Alkene ozonolysis takes place through a highly exothermic reaction pathway with multiple intermediates and barriers prior to releasing the OH radical products. Here, this Account focuses on a key reaction intermediate with a carbonyl oxide functional group (-COO), known as the Criegee intermediate, which is formed along with a carbonyl coproduct in alkene ozonolysis reactions. Under atmospheric conditions, the initially energized Criegee intermediates may promptly decay to OH products or be collisionally stabilized prior to thermal decay to OH radicals and other products.
