This study combined quantum chemical calculations and the matrix isolation technique to identify the formation of primary intermediates from the ozonolysis of -2-butene and limonene. Quantum chemical calculations were conducted under the framework of density functional theory (DFT) at M06-2x/6-311+(d, p) level of theory to predict the possible mechanism as well as the new absorption bands. New bands whose intensity increased with annealing, were observed in twin jet deposition, which indicated the formation of primary ozonides, CI and secondary ozonides in the investigated systems. Isotopic labeling (O) experiments further supported the assignment of observed bands. The results and findings in this study would enrich the understanding of the reaction mechanism of alkene ozonolysis.

Photooxidation products resulting from volatile organic compounds (VOCs) reacting with sunlight are important contributors to gas-phase air pollution. We characterized the product-weighted mutagenic potencies (rev m mgC h) in TA100 of atmospheres resulting from the hydroxyl radical (OH)-initiated photochemical oxidation of 11 C or C alkenes or dienes in the presence of nitric oxide (NO) and from the ozonolysis of four VOCs without NO (isoprene; 1,3-pentadiene; 1,4-pentadiene; and 1,3-butadiene). Irradiated atmospheres from precursors with a single C═C bond (3-methyl-1-butene, 2-methyl-1-butene, -2-pentene, 2-methyl-2-butene, 1-butene, and 1-pentene) had low potencies (<5), whereas linear dienes with terminal C═C bonds had high potencies (50-65).

Uni- and bi-molecular reactions involving Criegee intermediates (CIs) have been the focus of many studies due to the role these molecules play in atmospheric chemistry. The reactivity of CIs is known to strongly depend on their structure. The reaction network of the second simplest CI, acetaldehyde oxide (CHCHOO), is investigated in this work in an atmospheric pressure jet-stirred reactor (JSR) during the ozonolysis of -2-butene to explore the kinetic pathways relevant to atmospheric chemistry and low-temperature combustion.

Article Synopsis
- Ozonation of alkenes, particularly 2-methyl-1-butene (2M1B) and 2-methyl-2-butene (2M2B), is crucial for the formation of secondary organic aerosols (SOA) in the atmosphere.
- Low-temperature matrix isolation techniques were used to identify key intermediates such as Primary ozonides (POZs), Criegee Intermediates (CIs), and Secondary ozonides (SOZs), revealing the complexity of reactions based on the structure of the alkenes.
- The study discovered that asymmetric alkenes produce diverse CIs and SOZs during ozonation, with significant amounts of formaldehyde (HCHO) and other

The unimolecular reactions of Criegee intermediates (CIs) are thought to be one of the significant sources of atmospheric OH radicals. However, stark discrepancies exist in the unimolecular reaction rate of the methyl-substituted CI CHCHOO, typically from ozonolysis of alkenes such as -2-butene, between the results of ozonolysis of alkene experiments and the up-to-date theoretical calculations. That no further progress has been made since the method that directly produces CIs in the laboratory was developed is mostly attributed to the existence of two conformers, - and -CHCHOO, and the methodological limitations of sensitive conformer-specific detection.
