Abstract
We used a single particle mass spectrometry to online detect chemical compositions of individual particles over four seasons in Guangzhou. Number fractions (Nfs) of all the measured particles that contained oxalate were 1.9%, 5.2%, 25.1%, and 15.5%, whereas the Nfs of Fe-containing particles that were internally mixed with oxalate were 8.7%, 23.1%, 45.2%, and 31.2% from spring to winter, respectively. The results provided the first direct field measurements for the enhanced formation of oxalate associated with Fe-containing particles. Other oxidized organic compounds including formate, acetate, methylglyoxal, glyoxylate, purivate, malonate, and succinate were also detected in the Fe-containing particles. It is likely that reactive oxidant species (ROS) via Fenton reactions enhanced the formation of these organic compounds and their oxidation product oxalate. Gas-particle partitioning of oxalic acid followed by coordination with Fe might also partly contribute to the enhanced oxalate. Aerosol water content likely played an important role in the enhanced oxalate formation when the relative humidity is >60%. Interactions with Fe drove the diurnal variation of oxalate in the Fe-containing particles. The study could provide a reference for model simulation to improve understanding on the formation and fate of oxalate, and the evolution and climate impacts of particulate Fe.

Abstract
Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) of species bound to environmentally relevant oxide nanoparticles is largely limited to organic molecules structurally related to catechol that facilitate a chemical enhancement of the Raman signal. Here, we report that magnetite (Fe3O4) nanoparticles provide a SERS signal from oxalic acid and cysteine via an electric field enhancement. Magnetite thus likely provides an oxide substrate for SERS study of any adsorbed organic molecule. This substrate combines benefits from both metal-based and chemical SERS by providing an oxide surface for studies of environmentally and catalytically relevant detailed chemical bonding information with fewer restrictions of molecular structure or binding mechanisms. Therefore, the magnetite-based SERS demonstrated here provides a new approach to establishing the surface interactions of environmentally relevant organic ligands and mineral surfaces.
