Abstract
The gas phase and heterogeneous reaction on mineral dust aerosols of trace gases could significantly affect the tropospheric oxidation capacity and aerosol composition of the atmosphere. In this work, the OH radical-initiated oxidation of a hydrofluoroolefin, HFO-1234zc, and subsequent reaction of favorable intermediates with other reactive species, such as O2, HO2, and NOx (x = 1-2) radicals, were studied, and the role of mineral dust in the form of silicate clusters on the reaction mechanism and rate constant was studied. In the gas phase, OH radical addition to HFO-1234zc is kinetically more favorable than the H-atom abstraction reaction. The calculated reaction energy barrier and thermochemical parameters show that both the initial reactions are more feasible on silicate clusters. Thus, silicates can act as chemical sinks for trapping of hydrofluoroolefins (HFOs). It is found that both gas-phase and heterogeneous reactions are responsible for the transformation of HFOs into fluorinated compounds in the atmosphere. Further, the results show that the ozone creation potential of HFO-1234zc is low, and few of the products are harmful to aquatic organisms. This study provides new insights on the formation of toxic pollutants from the oxidation of HFO-1234zc, which may have significant implications in the troposphere.

Abstract
Repurposing of existing drugs toward new therapeutic use(s) has become an emergent area of research in current times. In this context, the antioxidant behavior of eight cholinergic drugs used in the treatment of Alzheimer's disease (AD) was investigated theoretically. The low bond dissociation enthalpy values in all of the compounds advocated for the hydrogen atom transfer mechanism toward the observed antioxidant behavior. The kinetic study for the reaction of the drugs with hydroperoxyl radicals indicated an indirect reaction path owing to the presence of pre- and postreaction complexes. In some cases, the rate constant for the H-abstraction reaction (k = 2.8 × 103 L mol-1 s-1) is found to be close to that of a well-known non-phenolic antioxidant, α-terpinene (k = 4.3 × 103 L mol-1 s-1). Quantification of charge transfer character among the drugs with DNA bases and molecular docking calculations confirmed the groove binding model and predicted the drugs to be safe from DNA damage. A theoretical evaluation of the mechanistic details governing the antioxidant property along with the proven stress reversal ability of these AD drugs provided new insights to design and develop more efficient drugs with dual therapeutic potential.

Abstract
Fluorinated olefins are valued chemicals in industry, especially as heat transfer fluids in refrigeration applications. As these volatile compounds are widely used, they may be released into the atmosphere, and investigation of their reactions in the atmosphere are therefore of importance. The kinetic analysis of the reaction mechanisms of trifluoroethene (CF2═CHF) with hydroxyl radicals is studied using computational chemistry at the M06-2X level with the 6-311++G(2d,d,p) and aug-cc-pVDZ basis sets as well as the composite CBS-QB3 method. Rate coefficients for the proposed mechanisms are calculated using transition state theory (TST) with tunneling corrections. The calculated rate constants for OH addition to CF2═CHF are in excellent agreement with experimental values. Kinetic parameters as a function of temperature and pressure are evaluated for the chemically activated formation and unimolecular dissociation of hydroxylfluoroalkyl intermediates. Important forward reactions result in adduct stabilization, H atoms, hydrogen fluoride (HF) via molecular elimination, and formation of fluorinated carbonyl radicals with CF2(═O) and CHF(═O) product channels. Stabilization of initial adducts along with HF elimination are important reaction pathways under high pressure and low temperatures. Important HF eliminations and H atom transfers primarily involve H atoms from the hydroxyl group, as the C-H bonds on or adjacent to carbons with F atoms are stronger and show high barriers to H atom transfer.

Abstract
Oxidation of ethyl vinyl ketone (CH2CHCOCH2CH3) by an OH radical was carried out using the M06-2X/6-311++G(d,p) level of theory. For the OH-initiated oxidation of ethyl vinyl ketone (EVK), we have considered six H-atom abstractions and three addition reactions. From the energetic calculation of the species involved therein, the potential energy surface (PES) of all the reaction channels was constructed. From the energy profile, we found that the H-atom abstraction from the methylene group (-CH2-) of CH2CHCOCH2CH3 is energetically more favourable than the other H-abstraction channels. Moreover, we also observed that OH-addition to the α-carbon of the carbon-carbon double bond of the title molecule is energetically and thermodynamically more dominant than β-carbon and carbonyl carbon. The rate coefficients for all the reaction channels were calculated using the canonical transition state theory at the temperature range of 250-450 K and it reveals that among all the reaction channels, OH-addition to α-carbon is kinetically more dominant to the total rate constant. The total rate coefficient for the reaction at 298 K is found to be in good agreement with the reported experimental rate constant. Finally, we have determined the atmospheric lifetime of the title molecule.

Abstract
The hydroxyl radical, as the most important oxidant, controls the removal of some volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in the atmosphere. In this work, the atmospheric oxidation processes of acrylic acid by OH radical have been investigated by density functional theory (DFT). The energetic routes of the reaction of CH2CHCOOH with OH radical have been calculated accurately at the CCSD(T)/cc-pVTZ//M06-2X/6-311++G(d,p) level. It is implicated that the oxidation has five elementary reaction pathways mostly hinging on how hydroxyl radical approaches to the carbon skeleton of acrylic acid. The atmospheric degradation mechanisms of the CH2CHCOOH by OH radical are the formation of reactive intermediates IM1 and IM2. Meanwhile, the further oxidation mechanisms of IM1 and IM2 by O3 and NO are also investigated. The rate coefficients have been computed using tight transition state theory of the variflex code. The calculated rate coefficient is 2.3 × 10-11 cm3 molecule-1 s-1 at standard pressure and 298 K, which is very close to the laboratory data (1.75 ± 0.47 × 10-11 cm3 molecule-1 s-1). Moreover, the atmospheric lifetime of acrylic acid is about 6 h at 298 K and 1 atm, implying that the fast sinks of acrylic acid by hydroxyl radical.
