Carbonyl Oxide Stabilization from Trans Alkene and Terpene Ozonolysis.

ABSTRACT: The pressure dependence of carbonyl oxide (Criegee intermediate) stabilization can be measured via H₂SO₄ detection using chemical ionization mass spectrometry. By selectively scavenging OH radicals in a flow reactor containing an alkene, O₃, and SO₂, we measure an H₂SO₄ ratio related to the Criegee intermediate stabilization, and by performing experiments at multiple pressures, we constrain the pressure dependence of the stabilization. Here, we present results from a set of monoterpenes as well as isoprene, along with previously published results from tetramethylethylene and a sequence of symmetrical trans alkenes. We are able to reproduce the observations with a physically sensible set of parameters related to standard pres
