Identification of HOC^•HC(O)H, HOCH₂C^•O, and HOCH₂CH₂O^• Intermediates in the Reaction of H + Glycolaldehyde in Solid Para-Hydrogen and Its Implication to the Interstellar Formation of Complex Sugars.

ABSTRACT: Glycolaldehyde [HOCH₂C(O)H, GA], the primitive sugar-like molecule detected in the interstellar medium (ISM), is a potential precursor for the synthesis of complex sugars. Despite its importance, the mechanism governing the formation of these higher-order sugars from GA under interstellar circumstances remains elusive. Radical intermediates HOCH₂CH₂O^• (1), HOCH₂C^•HOH (2), HOCH₂C^•O (3), HOC^•HC(O)H (4), and O^•CH₂C(O)H (5) derived from GA could be potential precursors for the formation of glyceraldehyde (aldose sugar), dihydroxyacetone (ketose sugar), and ethylene glycol (sugar alcohol) in dark regions of ISM. However, the spectral identif
