Rate constants for the reactions of OH radicals with four C(6)-C(10) cycloalkenes have been measured at 297 ± 2 K using a relative rate technique. The rate constants (in units of 10(-11) cm(3) molecule(-1) s(-1)) were cyclohexene, 6.35 ± 0.12; cis-cyclooctene, 5.16 ± 0.15; cis-cyclodecene, 4.18 ± 0.06; and 1-methyl-1-cyclohexene, 9.81 ± 0.18, where the indicated errors are two least-squares standard deviations and do not include uncertainties in the rate constant for the reference compound 1,3,5-trimethylbenzene. In addition, a rate constant of (4.8 ± 1.3) × 10(-11) cm(3) molecule(-1) s(-1) was derived for the reaction of OH radicals with 1,6-hexanedial, relative to our measured rate constant for OH + cyclohexene. Analyses of products of the OH + cyclohexene, 1-methyl-1-cyclohexene, and cis-cyclooctene reactions by direct air sampling atmospheric pressure ionization mass spectrometry and/or by combined gas chromatography-mass spectrometry showed the presence of products attributed to cyclic 1,2-hydroxynitrates and the dicarbonyls 1,6-hexanedial, 6-oxo-heptanal, and 1,8-octanedial, respectively. These dicarbonyl products, which are those formed after decomposition of the intermediate cyclic 1,2-hydroxyalkoxy radicals, were quantified as their dioximes, with molar formation yields of 76 ± 10%, 82 ± 12%, and 84 ± 18% from the cyclohexene, 1-methyl-1-cyclohexene, and cis-cyclooctene reactions, respectively. Combined with literature data concerning 1,2-hydroxynitrate formation from OH + alkenes and the estimated fractions of the overall reactions proceeding by H-atom abstraction, 90 ± 12%, 95 ± 13% and 108 ± 20% of the products or reaction pathways from the OH radical-initiated reactions of cyclohexene, 1-methyl-1-cyclohexene, and cis-cyclooctene in the presence of NO are accounted for.

Probing the Formation of Reactive Oxygen Species by a Porous Self-Assembled Benzophenone Bis-Urea Host.

Herein, we examine the photochemical formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) by a porous benzophenone-containing bis-urea host () to investigate the mechanism of photooxidations that occur within the confines of its nanochannels. UV irradiation of the self-assembled host in the presence of molecular oxygen generates both singlet oxygen and superoxide when suspended in solution. The efficiency of ROS generation by the host is lower than that of benzophenone (BP), which could be beneficial for reactions carried out catalytically, as ROS species react quickly and often unselectively.

The bis(arylimidazol-2-ylidene)pyridine cobalt methyl complex, ((iPr)CNC)CoCH3, was evaluated for the catalytic hydrogenation of alkenes. At 22 °C and 4 atm of H2 pressure, ((iPr)CNC)CoCH3 is an effective precatalyst for the hydrogenation of sterically hindered, unactivated alkenes such as trans-methylstilbene, 1-methyl-1-cyclohexene, and 2,3-dimethyl-2-butene, representing one of the most active cobalt hydrogenation catalysts reported to date. Preparation of the cobalt hydride complex, ((iPr)CNC)CoH, was accomplished by hydrogenation of ((iPr)CNC)CoCH3.

The volatile components of Nigella sativa seeds were isolated using microwave-assisted extraction (MAE) and identified using gas chromatography. Further investigations were carried out to demonstrate the effects of whole extracts on canine (dog) and murine (rat) cytochrome P450 1A (CYP1A). The optimal extraction conditions of MAE were as follows: 25 mL of water, medium level of microwave oven power and 10 min of extraction time.

The secondary organic aerosol (SOA) yields from the laboratory chamber ozonolysis of a series of cycloalkenes and related compounds are reported. The aim of this work is to investigate the effect of the structure of the hydrocarbon parent molecule on SOA formation for a homologous set of compounds. Aspects of the compound structures that are varied include the number of carbon atoms present in the cycloalkene ring (C5 to C8), the presence and location of methyl groups, and the presence of an exocyclic or endocyclic double bond.
