Abstract
The atmospheric α-pinene oxidation leads to three carboxylic acids: norpinonic acid (NPA), pinic acid (PA), and 3-methyl-1,2,3-butanetricarboxylic acid (MBTCA). In this study, the OH radical kinetics in the aqueous phase of these carboxylic acids were investigated at different temperatures and pH values of solutions. Activation parameters and the corresponding atmospheric lifetimes of the acids in the troposphere were derived. The overall second-order rate constants for the individual speciation forms of the acids (AH and A- for NPA; AH2, AH- and A2- for PA; and AH3, AH2-, AH2- and A3- for MBTCA) were determined. At 298 K, the rate constants for reactions of protonated forms (AHx) of NPA, PA, and MBTCA with •OH, were (1.5 ± 0.2) × 109 L mol-1 s-1, (2.4 ± 0.1) × 109 L mol-1 s-1, and (4.1 ± 0.6) × 108 L mol-1 s-1, respectively. For the fully deprotonated forms (Ax-) of studied acids, the second-order rate constants were (2.2 ± 0.2) × 109 L mol-1 s-1, (2.8 ± 0.1) × 109 L mol-1 s-1, and (10.2 ± 0.7) × 108 L mol-1 s-1 at 298 K, respectively. It was found that the reactions of NPA and PA with OH radicals are faster than with MBTCA. For MBTCA, the reaction rate depends on pH more strongly at elevated temperatures (>298 K). The atmospheric lifetimes of the acids considered due to their reactivity with •OH were calculated for different model scenarios at a temperature of 283 K and pH = 2 in the aqueous phase. For this purpose, liquid water content (LWC) was used for aerosols and clouds under storm conditions and at various aqueous-phase concentrations of OH radicals. The lifetimes decreased with increasing LWC (from 10-12 m3 m-3 in aerosol to 10-5 m3 m-3 in storms), indicating that the acids undergo significant aqueous processing under realistic atmospheric conditions. Besides, the aerosol systems appeared less effective in removing PA and NPA, with lifetimes ranging from hundreds of days to tens and hundreds of hours, respectively. Clouds were more effective, with lifetimes ranging from tens of hours to a single second or less. MBTCA, which dissolves better in water, was effectively removed in all systems, with the longest lifetime of approximately 90 min.

Abstract
Aureobasidium pullulans β-(1 → 3, 1 → 6)-glucan (APG) has a high degree of β-(1 → 6)-glucosyl branching and a regular triple helical structure similar to that of schizophyllan. In this study, APG was carboxymethylated to different degrees of substitution (DS = 0.51, 1.0, and 2.0, denoted CMAPG 1-3, respectively) using a heterogeneous reaction. With increasing DS, the triple-helix structure drastically decreased and converted to a random coil structure in CMAPG 3. Further, aqueous solutions of CMAPG changed from pseudoplastic fluids to perfect Newtonian liquids with increasing DS, indicating that the intra- and intermolecular hydrogen bonds had been cleaved by the substituents to form a random coil structure. In addition, APG and CMAPG solutions exhibited scavenging ability against hydroxyl, organic, and sulfate radicals. It was also found that the carboxymethylation of APG drastically enhanced the organic radical scavenging ability. On the basis of the relationship between the DS and radical scavenging ability of the CMAPG samples, we believe hydroxyl and organic radicals were preferably scavenged by the donation of hydrogen atoms from the glucose rings and the methylene moieties of the carboxymethyl groups, respectively. Considering the obtained results, CMAPG and APG are expected to have applications in pharmaceuticals, functional foods, and cosmetics as antioxidant polysaccharides.

Abstract
![]()
The sulfate anion radical (SO4•–) is a reactive oxidant formed in the autoxidation chain of sulfur
dioxide, among other sources. Recently, new formation pathways toward
SO4•– and other reactive sulfur
species have been reported. This work investigated the second-order
rate coefficients for the aqueous SO4•– oxidation of the following important organic aerosol compounds (kSO4): 2-methyltetrol, 2-methyl-1,2,3-trihydroxy-4-sulfate,
2-methyl-1,2-dihydroxy-3-sulfate, 1,2-dihydroxyisoprene, 2-methyl-2,3-dihydroxy-1,4-dinitrate,
2-methyl-1,2,4-trihydroxy-3-nitrate, 2-methylglyceric acid, 2-methylglycerate,
lactic acid, lactate, pyruvic acid, pyruvate. The rate coefficients
of the unknowns were determined against that of a reference in pure
water in a temperature range of 298–322 K. The decays of each
reagent were measured with nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and high-performance
liquid chromatography–high-resolution mass spectrometry (HPLC-HRMS).
Incorporating additional SO4•– reactions into models may aid in the understanding of organosulfate
formation, radical propagation, and aerosol mass sinks.

Abstract
Rational design of nanocomposite electrode materials with high conductivity, activity, and mechanical strength is critical in electrocatalysis. Herein, freestanding, flexible heteronanocomposites were fabricated in situ by carbonizing electrospun fibers with TiO2 nanoparticles on the surface for electrocatalytic degradation of water pollutants. The carbonization temperature was observed as a dominant parameter affecting the characteristics of the electrodes. As the carbonization temperature increased to 1000 °C, the conductivity of the electrode was significantly enhanced due to the high degree of graphitization (ID/IG ratio 1.10) and the dominant rutile phase. Additionally, the formation of TiO2 protrusions and the C-Ti heterostructure were observed at 1000 °C, which contributed to increasing the electrocatalytic activity. When 1.5 V (vs. Ag/AgCl) was employed, electrocatalytic experiments using the electrode achieved 90% degradation of crystal violet and 10.9-87.5% for an array of micropollutants. The electrical energy-per-order (EEO) for the removal of crystal violet was 0.7 kWh/m3/order, indicative of low-energy requirement. The efficient electrocatalytic activity can be ascribed to the fast electron transfer and the strong ability to generate hydroxyl radicals. Our findings expand efforts for the design of highly conductive heteronanocomposites in a facile in situ approach, providing a promising perspective for the energy-efficient electrocatalytic degradation of water pollutants.

Abstract
Rate constants for the aqueous-phase reactions of the hydroxyl radical with the dicarboxylic acids, succinic acid and pimelic acid were determined using the relative rate technique over the temperature range 287 K ≤ T ≤ 318 K and at pH = 2.0, 4.6 or 4.9 and 8.0. OH radicals were generated by H2O2 laser flash photolysis while thiocyanate was used as a competitor. The pH values were adjusted to obtain the different speciation of the dicarboxylic acids. The following Arrhenius expressions were determined (in units of L mol−1 s−1): succinic acid, k(T, AH2) (2.1 ± 0.1) × 1010 exp[(−1530 ± 250 K)/T], k(T, AH−) (1.8 ± 0.1) × 1010 exp[(−1070 ± 370 K)/T], k(T, A2−) (2.9 ± 0.2) × 1011 exp[(−1830 ± 350 K)/T] and pimelic acid, k(T, AH2) (7.3 ± 0.2) × 1010 exp[(−1040 ± 140 K)/T], k(T, AH−) (1.8 ± 0.1) × 1011 exp[(−1200 ± 240 K)/T], k(T, A2−) (1.4 ± 0.1) × 1012 exp[(−1830 ± 110 K)/T]. A general OH radical reactivity trend for dicarboxylic acids was found as k(AH2) < k(AH−) < k(A2−). By using the pH and temperature dependent rate constants, source and sinking processes in the tropospheric aqueous phase can be described precisely.

Abstract
Substituted phenols are known to readily react with the hydroxyl radical (OH˙), which is the most powerful atmospheric oxidant and is also most often used in advanced oxidation processes (AOP) for wastewater treatment. We report temperature-dependent (278.15-318.15 K) second order kinetic rate constants for the aqueous-phase reactions of OH˙ with phenol and four substituted phenols: catechol, phloroglucinol, pyrogallol and 3-methylcatechol, with the last two measured for the first time. The constructed Hammett plots for mono- and di-substituted phenols have the potential to be further applied for predicting the reaction rate constants of other substituted phenols at 298.15 K. This will significantly facilitate the optimization of AOP and improve the predictive capabilities of atmospheric multiphase models in the future. Moreover, an advancement in the understanding of the underlying mechanism, i.e. OH˙ addition to the aromatic ring is made by theoretical calculations at the M06-2X level. We demonstrate that the position of substituents on the aromatic ring is important for the [OH-phenol]˙ adduct formation, which is supported by the experiment and theoretical calculations. Adjacent and nonadjacent electron donor/acceptor substituents differently impact the interplay between the activation energy and entropy. We also show that explicit solvation has to be accounted for in theoretical models in order to explicitly describe the formation of the transition state.

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
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
Oxidation of biogenic volatile organic compounds (BVOC) by the nitrate radical (NO3) represents one of the important interactions between anthropogenic emissions related to combustion and natural emissions from the biosphere. This interaction has been recognized for more than 3 decades, during which time a large body of research has emerged from laboratory, field, and modeling studies. NO3-BVOC reactions influence air quality, climate and visibility through regional and global budgets for reactive nitrogen (particularly organic nitrates), ozone, and organic aerosol. Despite its long history of research and the significance of this topic in atmospheric chemistry, a number of important uncertainties remain. These include an incomplete understanding of the rates, mechanisms, and organic aerosol yields for NO3-BVOC reactions, lack of constraints on the role of heterogeneous oxidative processes associated with the NO3 radical, the difficulty of characterizing the spatial distributions of BVOC and NO3 within the poorly mixed nocturnal atmosphere, and the challenge of constructing appropriate boundary layer schemes and non-photochemical mechanisms for use in state-of-the-art chemical transport and chemistry-climate models. This review is the result of a workshop of the same title held at the Georgia Institute of Technology in June 2015. The first half of the review summarizes the current literature on NO3-BVOC chemistry, with a particular focus on recent advances in instrumentation and models, and in organic nitrate and secondary organic aerosol (SOA) formation chemistry. Building on this current understanding, the second half of the review outlines impacts of NO3-BVOC chemistry on air quality and climate, and suggests critical research needs to better constrain this interaction to improve the predictive capabilities of atmospheric models.

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
Although the effect of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) on the oxidation of dissolved sulfur dioxide by oxygen has been the subject of many investigations, this is the first study which examines the effect of a large number of precisely 16 hydroxy compounds. The kinetics both in the absence and the presence of VOCs was defined by rate laws (A and B): -d[S(IV)]dt = R₀ = k₀[S(IV)] (A) -d[S(IV)]dt = R(i) = k(i)[S(IV)] (B) where R₀ and k₀ are the initial rate and first-order rate constant, respectively, in the absence of VOCs, R(i), and k(i) are the initial rate and the first-order rate constant, respectively, in the presence of VOCs, and [S(IV)] is the concentration of dissolved sulfur dioxide, sulfur(IV). The nature of the dependence of k(i) on the concentration of inhibitor, [Inh], was defined by Eq. (C). [k(i) = k₀/(1 + B[Inh]) (C) where B is an empirical inhibition parameter. The values of B have been determined from the plots of 1/k(i) versus [Inh]. Among aliphatic and aromatic hydroxy compounds studied, t-butyl alcohol and pinacol were without any inhibition effect due to the absence of secondary or tertiary hydrogen. The values of inhibition parameter, B, were related to k(inh), the rate constant for the reaction of SO₄(-) radical with the inhibitor, by Eq. (D). B = (9 ± 2) x 10⁻⁴ x k(inh) (D) Equation (D) may be used to calculate the values of either of B or k(inh) provided that the other is known. The extent of inhibition depends on the value of the composite term, B[Inh]. However, in accordance with Eq. (C), the extent of inhibition would be sizeable and measurable when B[Inh] > 0.1 and oxidation of S(IV) would be almost completely stopped when B[Inh] ≥ 10. B[Inh] value can be used as a guide whether the reaction step: SO4 (-) + organics → SO₄(2-) + non-chain products: should be included in the multiphase models or not.

Abstract
The most important radicals which need to be considered for the description of chemical conversion processes in tropospheric aqueous systems are the hydroxyl radical (OH), the nitrate radical (NO(3)) and sulphur-containing radicals such as the sulphate radical (SO(4)(-)). For each of the three radicals their generation and their properties are discussed first in the corresponding sections. The main focus herein is to summarize newly published aqueous-phase kinetic data on OH, NO(3) and SO(4)(-) radical reactions relevant for the description of multiphase tropospheric chemistry. The data compilation builds up on earlier datasets published in the literature. Since the last review in 2003 (H. Herrmann, Chem. Rev. 2003, 103, 4691-4716) more than hundred new rate constants are available from literature. In case of larger discrepancies between novel and already published rate constants the available kinetic data for these reactions are discussed and recommendations are provided when possible. As many OH kinetic data are obtained by means of the thiocyanate (SCN(-)) system in competition kinetic measurements of OH radical reactions this system is reviewed in a subchapter of this review. Available rate constants for the reaction sequence following the reaction of OH+SCN(-) are summarized. Newly published data since 2003 have been considered and averaged rate constants are calculated. Applying competition kinetics measurements usually the formation of the radical anion (SCN)(2)(-) is monitored directly by absorption measurements. Within this subchapter available absorption spectra of the (SCN)(2)(-) radical anion from the last five decades are presented. Based on these spectra an averaged (SCN)(2)(-) spectrum was calculated. In the last years different estimation methods for aqueous phase kinetic data of radical reactions have been developed and published. Such methods are often essential to estimate kinetic data which are not accessible from the literature. Approaches for rate constant prediction include empirical correlations as well as structure activity relationships (SAR) either with or without the usage of quantum chemical descriptors. Recently published estimation methods for OH, NO(3) and SO(4)(-) radical reactions in aqueous solution are finally summarized, compared and discussed.

Abstract
The heterogeneous oxidation of pure erythritol (C(4)H(10)O(4)) and levoglucosan (C(6)H(10)O(5)) particles was studied in order to evaluate the effects of atmospheric aging on the mass and chemical composition of atmospheric organic aerosol. In contrast to what is generally observed for the heterogeneous oxidation of reduced organics, substantial volatilization is observed in both systems. However, the ratio of the decrease in particle mass to the decrease in the concentration of the parent species is about three times higher for erythritol than for levoglucosan, indicating that details of chemical structure (such as carbon number, cyclic moieties, and oxygen-containing functional groups) play a governing role in the importance of volatilization reactions. The kinetics of the reaction indicate that while both compounds react at approximately the same rate, reactions of their oxidation products appear to be slowed substantially. Estimates of volatilities of organic species based on elemental composition measurements suggest that the heterogeneous oxidation of oxygenated organics may be an important loss mechanism of organic aerosol.
