Abstract
Five biogenic unsaturated alcohols have been investigated under simulated atmospheric conditions regarding their gas-phase OH reactivity. The gas-phase rate coefficients of OH radicals with 2-methyl-3-buten-2-ol (k1), 3-methyl-2-buten-1-ol (k2), 3-methyl-3-buten-1-ol (k3), 2-methyl-3-buten-1-ol (k4), and 3-methyl-3-buten-2-ol (k5) at 298 ± 2 K and 1000 ± 10 mbar total pressure of synthetic air were determined under low- and high-NOx conditions using the relative kinetic technique. The present work provides for the first time the rate coefficients of gas-phase reactions of hydroxyl radicals with 2-methyl-3-buten-1-ol and 3-methyl-3-buten-2-ol. The following rate constants were measured (in 10-11 cm3 molecule-1 s-1): k1 = 6.32 ± 0.49, k2 = 14.55 ± 0.93, k3 = 10.04 ± 0.78, k4 = 5.31 ± 0.37, and k5 = 11.71 ± 1.29. No significant differences in the measured rate coefficients were obtained when either 365 nm photolysis of CH3ONO in the presence of NO or 254 nm photolysis of H2O2 was used as a source of OH radicals. Reactivity toward other classes of related compounds such as alkenes and saturated alcohols is discussed. A comparison of the structure-activity relationship (SAR) estimates derived from the available accepted methodologies with experimental data available for unsaturated alcohols is provided. Atmospheric lifetimes for the investigated series of alkenols with respect to the main atmospheric oxidants are given and discussed.

Abstract
2-Methyl-3-buten-2-ol (MBO232) is a potential biofuel and renewable fuel additive. In a combustion environment, the consumption of MBO232 is mainly through the reaction with a OH radical, one of the most important oxidants. Here, we predict the intricate reactions of MBO232 and OH radicals under a broad range of combustion conditions, that is, 230-2500 K and 0.01-1000 atm. The potential energy surfaces of H-abstraction and OH-addition have been investigated at the CCSD(T)/CBS//M06-2X/def2-TZVP level, and the rate constants were calculated via Rice-Ramsperger-Kassel-Marcus/master equation (RRKM/ME) theory. The decomposition reactions of the critical intermediates from the OH-addition reactions have also been studied. Our results show that OH-addition reactions are dominant below 850 K, while H-abstraction reactions, especially the channel-abstracting H atoms from the methyl groups, are more competitive at higher temperatures. We found that it is necessary to discriminate H atoms attached to the same C atom, as their abstraction rates can differ by up to 1 order of magnitude. The calculated results show good agreement with the reported experimental data. We have provided the modified Arrhenius expressions for rate constants of the dominant channels. The kinetic data determined in this work are of much value for constructing the combustion models of MBO232 and understanding the combustion kinetics and mechanism of other unsaturated alcohols.
