Rate coefficients for the reaction of NO3 radicals with a series of aromatic aldehydes were measured in a 7300 L simulation chamber at ambient temperature and pressure by relative and absolute methods. The rate coefficients for benzaldehyde (BA), ortho-tolualdehyde (O-TA), meta-tolualdehyde (M-TA), para-tolualdehyde (P-TA), 2,4-dimethyl benzaldehyde (2,4-DMBA), 2,5-dimethyl benzaldehyde (2,5-DMBA) and 3,5-dimethyl benzaldehyde (3,5-DMBA) were k(1) = 2.6 +/- 0.3, k(2) = 8.7 +/- 0.8, k(3) = 4.9 +/- 0.5, k(4) = 4.9 +/- 0.4, k(5) = 15.1 +/- 1.3, k(6) = 12.8 +/- 1.2 and k(7) = 6.2 +/- 0.6, respectively, in the units of 10(-15) cm(3) molec. 1 s(-1) at 298 +/- 2 K. The rate coefficient k(13) for the reaction of the NO3 radical with deuterated benzaldehyde (benzaldehyde-d(1)) was found to be half that of k(1). The end product of the reaction in an excess of NO2 was measured to be C6H5C(O)O2NO2. Theoretical calculations of aldehydic bond energies and reaction pathways indicate that the NO3 radical reacts primarily with aromatic aldehydes through the abstraction of an aldehydic hydrogen atom. The atmospheric implications of the measured rate coefficients are briefly discussed.
