9625437 Hynes This project has three components that relate to the tropospheric cycling of the hydroxyl radical, the most important oxidant in the troposphere. The first project involves laboratory measurements of the quantum yield for production of singlet oxygen atoms in ozone photolysis at long wavelengths (295-350 nm). In the atmosphere, these singlet oxygen atoms react with water vapor to form hydroxyl. In the laboratory, the singlet oxygen atoms will be monitored directly via Resonance Enhanced Multiphoton Ionization (REMPI) or indirectly through Laser-Induced Fluorescence (LIF) of hydroxyl radicals and by monitoring the appearance of triplet (ground state) oxygen atoms via 2-photon LIF. These types of measurements are needed in order to accurately model hydroxyl radical production in the atmosphere under all conditions. The second component addresses the kinetics and photochemistry of the hydroperoxyl radical. Many of its reactions appear to proceed via complex mechanisms and several display complex pressure and water vapor dependencies. Because of the difficulties involved with high pressure kinetic studies of this radical, its kinetic database is limited. The photofragment-LIF technique will be used for kinetic studies of the reactions of hydroperoxyl with nitric oxide, nitrogen dioxide, and carbonyl compounds. Temperature and pressure dependencies will be determined under realistic atmospheric conditions. The extension of this technique to the study of radical-radical reactions, in particular the reactions of hydroperoxyl with peroxy species, will be investigated. The third component addresses the kinetics and mechanism of the reaction of hydroxyl radical with isoprene. Isoprene is a significant sink for hydroxyl in clean and moderately polluted environments and the oxidation appears to proceed via the formation of an addition complex. These complexes can further react with molecular oxygen, ozone, nitrogen dioxide, or nitric oxide, and the effective rates and temperature depen dencies of the reactions can be a complex function of gas composition and pressure. The pulsed laser photolysis-pulsed laser induced fluorescence technique will be used to perform direct kinetic and mechanistic studies of this reaction under realistic conditions of atmospheric composition and temperature. ***

9625437 Hynes 该项目有三个组成部分，涉及对流层中最重要的氧化剂羟基自由基的对流层循环。第一个项目涉及在实验室测量长波长（295-350纳米）臭氧光解产生单线态氧原子的量子产率。在大气中，这些单线态氧原子与水蒸气反应形成羟基。在实验室中，单线态氧原子将通过共振增强多光子电离（REMPI）直接监测，或通过羟基自由基的激光诱导荧光（LIF）间接监测，并通过双光子LIF监测三重态（基态）氧原子的出现。需要这些类型的测量，以便在所有条件下准确模拟大气中的羟基自由基产生。 第二部分讨论过氧化氢自由基的动力学和光化学。它的许多反应似乎是通过复杂的机制进行的，有几个反应显示出复杂的压力和水蒸气依赖性。由于这种自由基的高压动力学研究的困难，其动力学数据库是有限的。光致碎裂-LIF技术将用于过氧化氢与一氧化氮、二氧化氮和羰基化合物反应的动力学研究。温度和压力依赖性将在实际大气条件下确定。该技术的扩展到自由基-自由基反应的研究，特别是氢过氧与过氧物种的反应，将进行调查。 第三部分讨论了羟基自由基与异戊二烯反应的动力学和机理。异戊二烯是清洁和中度污染环境中羟基的重要汇，氧化似乎通过形成加成络合物进行。这些络合物可以进一步与分子氧、臭氧、二氧化氮或一氧化氮反应，并且反应的有效速率和温度依赖性可以是气体组成和压力的复杂函数。脉冲激光光解-脉冲激光诱导荧光技术将用于在大气成分和温度的实际条件下对该反应进行直接动力学和机理研究。 ***
