Products of the gas-phase reaction of α-pinene with OH radicals in the presence of NO have been investigated using gas chromatography with flame ionization detection to quantify pinonaldehyde and in situ atmospheric pressure ionization mass spectrometry in the negative ion mode to quantify selected other products as their NO2- adducts by utilizing C6-dihydroxycarbonyls and C6-hydroxynitrates formed in situ from the reaction of OH radicals with 1-hexene as an internal standard. The products quantified, and their molar formation yields, were: pinonaldehyde, 28 ¿ 5%; molecular weight 184 product (dihydroxycarbonyl), 19% (with an estimated uncertainty of a factor of ~2); molecular weight 200 product, 11% (with an estimated uncertainty of a factor of ~2). Together with a very approximate yield from our API-MS analyses for the formation of organic nitrates (~1%) and literature data for acetone (plus coproducts), ~65--70% of the reaction products and pathways are accounted for. |
