Abstract
T-dependent aqueous-phase rate constants were determined for the oxidation of the hydroxy aldehydes, glyceraldehyde, glycolaldehyde, and lactaldehyde, by the hydroxyl radicals (•OH), the sulfate radicals (SO4•-), and the nitrate radicals (NO3•). The obtained Arrhenius expressions for the oxidation by the •OH radical are: k(T,GLYCERALDEHYDE+OH•) = (3.3 ± 0.1) × 1010 × exp((-960 ± 80 K)/T)/L mol-1 s-1, k(T,GLYCOLALDEHYDE+OH•) = (4.3 ± 0.1) × 1011 × exp((-1740 ± 50 K)/T)/L mol-1 s-1, k(T,LACTALDEHYDE+OH•) = (1.6 ± 0.1) × 1011 × exp((-1410 ± 180 K)/T)/L mol-1 s-1; for the SO4•- radical: k(T,GLYCERALDEHYDE+SO4•-) = (4.3 ± 0.1) × 109 × exp((-1400 ± 50 K)/T)/L mol-1 s-1, k(T,GLYCOLALDEHYDE+SO4•-) = (10.3 ± 0.3) × 109 × exp((-1730 ± 190 K)/T)/L mol-1 s-1, k(T,LACTALDEHYDE+SO4•-) = (2.2 ± 0.1) × 109 × exp((-1030 ± 230 K)/T)/L mol-1 s-1; and for the NO3• radical: k(T,GLYCERALDEHYDE+NO3•) = (3.4 ± 0.2) × 1011 × exp((-3470 ± 460 K)/T)/L mol-1 s-1, k(T,GLYCOLALDEHYDE+NO3•) = (7.8 ± 0.2) × 1011 × exp((-3820 ± 240 K)/T)/L mol-1 s-1, k(T,LACTALDEHYDE+NO3•) = (4.3 ± 0.2) × 1010 × exp((-2750 ± 340 K)/T)/L mol-1 s-1, respectively. Targeted simulations of multiphase chemistry reveal that the oxidation by OH radicals in cloud droplets is important under remote and wildfire influenced continental conditions due to enhanced partitioning. There, the modeled average aqueous •OH concentration is 2.6 × 10-14 and 1.8 × 10-14 mol L-1, whereas it is 7.9 × 10-14 and 3.5 × 10-14 mol L-1 under wet particle conditions. During cloud periods, the aqueous-phase reactions by •OH contribute to the oxidation of glycolaldehyde, lactaldehyde, and glyceraldehyde by about 35 and 29%, 3 and 3%, and 47 and 37%, respectively.

Abstract
Tartaric acid and mucic acid are dicarboxylic acids (DCAs), a substance class often found in atmospheric aerosols and cloud droplets. The hydroxyl radical (•OH)-induced oxidation in the aqueous phase is known to be an important loss process of organic compounds such as DCAs. However, the study of •OH kinetics of DCAs in the aqueous phase is still incomplete. In the present study, the rate constants of the •OH reactions of tartaric acid and mucic acid in the aqueous phase were determined by the thiocyanate competition kinetics method as a function of temperature and pH. The following T-dependent Arrhenius expressions (in units of L mol-1 s-1) were first derived for the •OH reactions with tartaric acid─k(T, H2A) = (3.3 ± 0.1) × 1010 exp[(-1350 ± 110 K)/T], k(T, HA-) = (3.6 ± 0.1) × 1010 exp[(-580 ± 110 K)/T], and k(T, A2-) = (3.3 ± 0.1) × 1010 exp[(-1190 ± 170 K)/T]─as well as mucic acid─k(T, H2A) = (2.2 ± 0.1) × 1010 exp[(-1140 ± 150 K)/T], k(T, HA-) = (4.8 ± 0.1) × 1010 exp[(-1280 ± 170 K)/T], and k(T, A2-) = (2.1 ± 0.1) × 1010 exp[(-970 ± 70 K)/T]. A general trend of the •OH rate constant is found as kA2- > kHA- > kH2A. The pH- and temperature-dependent rate constants of the OH radical reactions allow an accurate description of the source and sink processes in the tropospheric aqueous phase.

Abstract
Glycine, alanine, serine, and threonine are essential amino acids originating from biological activities. These substances can be emitted into the atmosphere directly. In the present study, the aqueous phase reaction kinetics of hydroxyl radicals (˙OH) with the four amino acids is investigated using the competition kinetics method under controlled temperature and pH conditions. The following T-dependent Arrhenius expressions are derived for the ˙OH reactions with glycine, k(T, H2A+) = (9.1 ± 0.3) × 109 × exp[(-2360 ± 230 K)/T], k(T, HA±) = (1.3 ± 0.1) × 1010 × exp[(-2040 ± 240 K)/T]; alanine, k(T, H2A+) = (1.4 ± 0.1) × 109 × exp[(-1120 ± 320 K)/T], k(T, HA±) = (5.5 ± 0.2) × 109 × exp[(-1300 ± 200 K)/T]; serine, k(T, H2A+) = (1.1 ± 0.1) × 109 × exp[(-470 ± 150 K)/T], k(T, HA±) = (3.9 ± 0.1) × 109 × exp[(-720 ± 130 K)/T]; and threonine, k(T, H2A+) = (5.0 ± 0.1) × 1010 × exp[(-1500 ± 100 K)/T], k(T, HA±) = (3.3 ± 0.1) × 1010 × exp[(-1320 ± 90 K)/T] (in units of L mol-1 s-1). The energy barriers of the ˙OH-induced H atom abstractions were simulated by the density functional theory (DFT) calculation performed with GAUSSIAN using the method of M06-2X and the basis set of 6-311++G(3df,2p). According to the calculation results, the -COOH and -NH3+ groups with strong negative inductive effects increase the energy barriers and thus decrease the ˙OH reaction rate constants. In contrast, the presence of a -OH or -CH3 group with weak negative or positive inductive effects can reduce energy barriers and hence increase the ˙OH reaction rate constants. To improve the previous structure-activity relationship, the contribution factors of -NH3+ at Cα-atom and Cβ-atom are determined as 0.07 and 0.15, respectively. Aqueous phase ˙OH oxidation acts as an important sink of the amino acids in the atmosphere, and can be accurately described by the obtained Arrhenius expressions under atmospheric conditions.

Abstract
Methoxyphenols, which are emitted through biomass burning, are an important species in atmospheric chemistry. In the present study, temperature-dependent aqueous-phase OH radical reactions of six methoxyphenols and two related phenols have been investigated through laser flash photolysis and the density functional theory. The rate constants obtained were in a range of (1.1-1.9) × 1010 L mol-1 s-1 with k(3-MC) > k(Cre) ≈ k(Syr) ≈ k(MEP) > k(Res) > k(3-MP) > k(2-EP) ≈ k(2-MP). We derived the parameters of these reactions from the obtained T-dependent rate constants and found a mean Arrhenius activation energy of 16.9 kJ mol-1. The diffusion rate constants were calculated for each case and compared to the measured ones. Generally, the rate constants are found to be close to fully diffusion-controlled (kdiff = (1.4-1.5) × 1010 L mol-1 s-1 for all reactions). A structure-function relationship was established through the measurement result, which could be used for predicting unknown rate constants of other phenolic compounds. All of these findings are expected to enhance the predictive capabilities of models, such as the chemical aqueous-phase radical mechanism.

Abstract
Terpene-derived acids formed through the atmospheric gas-phase oxidation of terpenes are able to efficiently undergo a phase transfer into the aqueous phase. The subsequent aqueous-phase oxidation of such compounds has not been intensely studied. Accordingly, the aqueous-phase second-order rate constants of the oxidation reactions of cis-pinonic acid (CPA) and (+)-camphoric acid (+CA) with hydroxyl radicals (•OH), nitrate radicals (NO3•), and sulfate radicals (SO4•-) were investigated as a function of temperature and pH in the present study. For CPA and +CA the following •OH reaction rate constants at T = 298 K are determined: ksecond(CPA, pH<2) = (2.8 ± 0.1) × 109 L mol-1 s-1, ksecond(CPA, pH>8) = (2.7 ± 0.3) × 109 L mol-1 s-1, ksecond(+CA, pH<2) = (2.1 ± 0.1) × 109 L mol-1 s-1, ksecond(+CA, pH=5.3) = (2.7 ± 0.3) × 109 L mol-1 s-1, ksecond(+CA, pH>8) = (2.7 ± 0.1) × 109 L mol-1 s-1. In order to assess the atmospheric impact of the aqueous-phase oxidation of such compounds, atmospheric aqueous-phase lifetimes were calculated for two model scenarios based on CAPRAM 3.0i. The aqueous-phase oxidation under remote conditions emerges to be the most favored pathway with lifetimes of 5 ± 1 h.

Abstract
Advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) that produce highly reactive hydroxyl radicals are promising methods to destroy aqueous organic contaminants. Hydroxyl radicals react rapidly and nonselectively with organic contaminants and degrade them into intermediates and transformation byproducts. Past studies have indicated that peroxyl radical reactions are responsible for the formation of many intermediate radicals and transformation byproducts. However, complex peroxyl radical reactions that produce identical transformation products make it difficult to experimentally study the elementary reaction pathways and kinetics. In this study, we used ab initio quantum mechanical calculations to identify the thermodynamically preferable elementary reaction pathways of hydroxyl radical-induced acetone degradation by calculating the free energies of the reaction and predicting the corresponding reaction rate constants by calculating the free energies of activation. In addition, we solved the ordinary differential equations for each species participating in the elementary reactions to predict the concentration profiles for acetone and its transformation byproducts in an aqueous phase UV/hydrogen peroxide AOP. Our ab initio quantum mechanical calculations found an insignificant contribution of Russell reaction mechanisms of peroxyl radicals, but significant involvement of HO2• in the peroxyl radical reactions. The predicted concentration profiles were compared with experiments in the literature, validating our elementary reaction-based kinetic model.

Abstract
Oxygenated organic compounds are omnipresent in the troposphere, due to their strong emissions from either biogenic or anthropogenic sources. Additionally, the degradation and oxidation processes of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) result in the production of oxygenated organic compounds in the troposphere. The degradation and conversion of these compounds are often initiated by radical reactions and occur in the gas phase as well as in the aqueous phase, including cloud droplets, fog, haze, rain or hygroscopic particles containing 'aerosol liquid water (ALW)'. In the present study, the temperature-dependent OH radical reactions with oxygenated organic compounds in the aqueous phase have been investigated by laser flash photolysis. To determine the rate constants, the OH radical - thiocyanate anion competition kinetics method has been used. Once the organic reactant has an absorption at the excitation wavelength of the photolysis laser, the initial OH concentration decreases. This internal absorption effect leads to an overestimated rate constant of the investigated compound. The present study considers this contribution in order to clarify the internal absorption effect of the investigated organic compounds. The following rate constants for OH radical oxidation reactions of the oxygenated organic compounds have been obtained: acetone (2-propanone) k298K = (7.6 ± 1.0) × 107 L mol-1 s-1, 1-hydroxypropan-2-one k298K = (1.1 ± 0.1) × 109 L mol-1 s-1, 1,3-dihydroxypropan-2-one k298K = (1.5 ± 0.1) × 109 L mol-1 s-1, 2,3-dihydroxypropanal k298K = (1.3 ± 0.1) × 109 L mol-1 s-1, butane-1,3-diol k298K = (2.5 ± 0.1) × 109 L mol-1 s-1, butane-2,3-diol k298K = (2.0 ± 0.1) × 109 L mol-1 s-1 and hexane-1,2-diol k298K = (4.6 ± 0.4) × 109 L mol-1 s-1. With the rate constants obtained and their T-dependencies, the source and sink processes of oxygenated organic compounds in the tropospheric aqueous phase are arrived at precisely. These findings might enhance the predictive capabilities of models such as the chemical aqueous-phase radical mechanism (CAPRAM).

Abstract
The highly energetic electrons in non-thermal plasma generated by gas phase pulsed corona discharge (PCD) produce hydroxyl (OH) radicals via collision reactions with water molecules. Previous work has established that OH radicals are formed at the plasma-liquid interface, making it an important location for the oxidation of aqueous pollutants. Here, by contacting water as aerosol with PCD plasma, it is shown that OH radicals are produced on the gas side of the interface, and not in the liquid phase. It is also demonstrated that the gas-liquid interfacial boundary poses a barrier for the OH radicals, one they need to cross for reactive affinity with dissolved components, and that this process requires a gaseous atomic H scavenger. For gaseous oxidation, a scavenger, oxygen in common cases, is an advantage but not a requirement. OH radical efficiency in liquid phase reactions is strongly temperature dependent as radical termination reaction rates increase with temperature.

Abstract
The use of copper in directed C-H oxidation has been relatively underexplored. In a seminal example, Schönecker showed that copper and O2 promoted the hydroxylation of steroid-containing ligands. Recently, Baran (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2015, 137, 13776) improved the reaction conditions to oxidize similar substrates with excellent yields. In both reports, the involvement of Cu2O2 intermediates was suggested. In this collaborative article, we studied the hydroxylation mechanism in great detail, resulting in the overhaul of the previously accepted mechanism and the development of improved reaction conditions. Extensive experimental evidence (spectroscopic characterization, kinetic analysis, intermolecular reactivity, and radical trap experiments) is provided to support each of the elementary steps proposed and the hypothesis that a key mononuclear LCuII(OOR) intermediate undergoes homolytic O-O cleavage to generate reactive RO• species, which are responsible for key C-H hydroxylation within the solvent cage. These key findings allowed the oxidation protocol to be reformulated, leading to improvements of the reaction cost, practicability, and isolated yield.

Abstract
OH radicals generated by the photolysis of H2O2 can degrade aromatic contaminants by either attacking the aromatic ring to form phenolic products or oxidizing the substituent. We characterized these competing pathways by analyzing the carbon and hydrogen isotope fractionation (εC and εH) of various substituted benzenes. For benzene and halobenzenes that only undergo ring addition, low values of εC (-0.7‰ to -1.0‰) were observed compared with theoretical values (-7.2‰ to -8‰), possibly owing to masking effect caused by pre-equilibrium between the substrate and OH radical preceding the rate-limiting step. In contrast, the addition of OH radicals to nitrobenzene ring showed a higher εC (-3.9‰), probably due to the lower reactivity. Xylene isomers, anisole, aniline, N,N-dimethylaniline, and benzonitrile yielded normal εH values (-2.8‰ to -29‰) indicating the occurrence of side-chain reactions, in contrast to the inverse εH (11.7‰ to 30‰) observed for ring addition due to an sp(2) to sp(3) hybridization change at the reacting carbon. Inverse εH values for toluene (14‰) and ethylbenzene (30‰) were observed despite the formation of side-chain oxidation products, suggesting that ring addition has a larger contribution to isotope fractionation. Dual element isotope slopes (∆δ(2)H/∆δ(13)C) therefore allow identification of significant degradation pathways of aromatic compounds by photochemically induced OH radicals. Issues that should be addressed in future studies include quantitative determination of the contribution of each competing pathway to the observed isotope fractionation and characterization of physical processes preceding the reaction that could affect isotope fractionation.

Abstract
Over the past decade, it has become clear that aqueous chemical processes occurring in cloud droplets and wet atmospheric particles are an important source of organic atmospheric particulate matter. Reactions of water-soluble volatile (or semivolatile) organic gases (VOCs or SVOCs) in these aqueous media lead to the formation of highly oxidized organic particulate matter (secondary organic aerosol; SOA) and key tracer species, such as organosulfates. These processes are often driven by a combination of anthropogenic and biogenic emissions, and therefore their accurate representation in models is important for effective air quality management. Despite considerable progress, mechanistic understanding of some key aqueous processes is still lacking, and these pathways are incompletely represented in 3D atmospheric chemistry and air quality models. In this article, the concepts, historical context, and current state of the science of aqueous pathways of SOA formation are discussed.

Abstract
High-valent terminal metal-oxygen adducts are hypothesized to be the potent oxidizing reactants in late transition metal oxidation catalysis. In particular, examples of high-valent terminal nickel-oxygen adducts are scarce, meaning there is a dearth in the understanding of such oxidants. A monoanionic Ni(II)-bicarbonate complex has been found to react in a 1:1 ratio with the one-electron oxidant tris(4-bromophenyl)ammoniumyl hexachloroantimonate, yielding a thermally unstable intermediate in high yield (ca. 95%). Electronic absorption, electronic paramagnetic resonance, and X-ray absorption spectroscopies and density functional theory calculations confirm its description as a low-spin (S = 1/2), square planar Ni(III)-oxygen adduct. This rare example of a high-valent terminal nickel-oxygen complex performs oxidations of organic substrates, including 2,6-di-tert-butylphenol and triphenylphosphine, which are indicative of hydrogen atom abstraction and oxygen atom transfer reactivity, respectively.

Abstract
The rate constant for the reaction of the hydrated glyoxyl radical (CH(OH)2-C(OH)2(·) with O2 has been determined as k(298) K = (1.2 ± 0.3) × 10(9) L mol(-1) s(-1) at pH 4.8. This experimental value is considerably higher than a widely used estimated value of about k = 1 × 10(6) L mol(-1) s(-1). As the aqueous phase conversion of glyoxal is of wide interest for aqSOA formation, we suggest that the newly determined rate constant should be applied in multiphase models. The formation of the dimerization product tartaric acid has as well been studied. This product is found, however in significant yields only when the oxygen content of the solution is reduced. The formation of dimers from the recombination of alkyl radicals in the atmospheric aqueous phase should hence be treated with great care. Finally, the reactions of the free radicals OH, NO3, and SO4(-) with glyoxal have been investigated and rate constants of k(298) K (OH) = (9.2 ± 0.5) × 10(8) L mol(-1) s(-1), k(298) K (SO4(-)) = (2.4 ± 0.2) × 10(7) L mol(-1) s(-1) and k(298) K (NO3) = (4.5 ± 0.3) × 10(6) L mol(-1) s(-1) were obtained.

Abstract
Aqueous phase advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) produce hydroxyl radicals (HO•) which can completely oxidize electron rich organic compounds. The proper design and operation of AOPs require that we predict the formation and fate of the byproducts and their associated toxicity. Accordingly, there is a need to develop a first-principles kinetic model that can predict the dominant reaction pathways that potentially produce toxic byproducts. We have published some of our efforts on predicting the elementary reaction pathways and the HO• rate constants. Here we develop linear free energy relationships (LFERs) that predict the rate constants for aqueous phase radical reactions. The LFERs relate experimentally obtained kinetic rate constants to quantum mechanically calculated aqueous phase free energies of activation. The LFERs have been applied to 101 reactions, including (1) HO• addition to 15 aromatic compounds; (2) addition of molecular oxygen to 65 carbon-centered aliphatic and cyclohexadienyl radicals; (3) disproportionation of 10 peroxyl radicals, and (4) unimolecular decay of nine peroxyl radicals. The LFERs correlations predict the rate constants within a factor of 2 from the experimental values for HO• reactions and molecular oxygen addition, and a factor of 5 for peroxyl radical reactions. The LFERs and the elementary reaction pathways will enable us to predict the formation and initial fate of the byproducts in AOPs. Furthermore, our methodology can be applied to other environmental processes in which aqueous phase radical-involved reactions occur.

Abstract
In this study, a computer-based first-principles kinetic model is developed to predict the degradation mechanisms and fates of intermediates and byproducts produced during aqueous-phase advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) for various organic compounds. The model contains a rule-based pathway generator to generate the reaction pathways, a reaction rate constant estimator to estimate the reaction rate constant for each reaction generated, a mechanistic reduction module to reduce the generated mechanisms, an ordinary differential equations generator and solver to solve the generated mechanisms and calculate the concentration profiles for all species, and a toxicity estimator to estimate the toxicity of major species and calculate time-dependent profiles of relative toxicity (i.e., concentration of species divided by toxicity value). We predict concentration profiles of acetone and trichloroethylene and their intermediates and byproducts in photolysis with hydrogen peroxide (i.e., UV/H2O2) and validate with experimental observations. The predicted concentration profiles for both parent compounds are consistent with experimental data. The calculated profiles of 96-h green algae chronic toxicity show that the overall toxicity decreases during the degradation process. These generated mechanisms also provide detailed and quantitative insights into the pathways for the formation and consumption of important intermediates and byproducts produced during AOPs. Our approach is sufficiently general to be applied to a wide range of contaminants.

Abstract
L-Valine solutions in water and phosphate buffer were treated with nonthermal plasma generated by using a dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) device and the products generated after plasma treatments were characterized by (1)H NMR and GC-MS. Our results demonstrate that L-valine is decomposed to acetone, formic acid, acetic acid, threo-methylaspartic acid, erythro-methlyaspartic acid, and pyruvic acid after direct exposure to DBD plasma. The concentrations of these compounds are time-dependent with plasma treatment. The mechanisms of L-valine under the DBD plasma are also proposed in this study. Acetone, pyruvic acid, and organic radicals (•)CHO, CH3COCH2OO(•) (acetonylperoxy), and CH3COC(OH)2OO(•) (1,1-dihydroxypropan-2-one peroxy) may be the determining chemicals in DNA damage.
