Abstract
Methanesulfenic acid, CH3SOH, is a fleeting intermediate in the ·OH-initiated oxidation reactions of dimethyl sulfide (DMS) and dimethyl disulfide (DMDS) in the atmosphere. Herein, we report the characterization and photochemistry of CH3SOH in Ar- and N2-matrices at 10 K. The characterization of CH3SOH with matrix-isolation IR and UV-vis spectroscopy is supported by D and 13C isotope labeling experiments and quantum chemical calculations. In line with the observed absorption at 260 nm for CH3SOH, its photolysis at 254 nm leads to dissociation by yielding the novel water complex H2CS···H2O, which exhibits a five-membered ring structure with intermolecular S···HO and CH···O hydrogen bonding interactions. Upon further irradiation at 193 nm, the H2CS···H2O complex undergoes dehydrogenation to form CS···H2O, which can further convert to HC(O)SH under irradiation at 254 nm. When the photolysis of CH3SOH was performed in an O2-doped Ar-matrix, methanesulfonic acid (MSA, CH3SO3H) was obtained as the oxidation product.

Abstract
Sulfur oxide species (RSOx) play a critical role in many fields, ranging from biology to atmospheric chemistry. Chlorine-containing sulfur oxides may play a key role in sulfate aerosol formation in Venus' cloud layer by catalyzing the oxidation of SO to SO2 via sulfinyl radicals (RSO). We present results from the gas-phase UV-vis transient absorption spectroscopy study of the simplest sulfinyl radical, ClSO, generated from the pulsed-laser photolysis of thionyl chloride at 248 nm (at 40 Torr of N2 and 292 K). A weak absorption spectrum from 350 to 480 nm with a peak at 385 nm was observed, with partially resolved vibronic bands (spacing = 226 cm-1), and a peak cross section σ(385 nm) = (7.6 ± 1.9) × 10-20 cm2. From ab initio calculations at the EOMEE-CCSD/ano-pVQZ level, we assigned this band to 12A' ← X2A″ and 22A' ← X2A″ transitions. The spectrum was modeled as a sum of a bound-to-free transition to the 12A' state and a bound-to-bound transition to the 22A' state with similar oscillator strengths; the prediction agreed well with the observed spectrum. We attributed the vibronic structure to a progression in the bending vibration of the 22A' state. Further calculations at the XDW-CASPT2 level predicted a conical intersection between the excited 12A' and 22A' potential energy surfaces near the Franck-Condon region. The geometry of the minimum-energy conical intersection was similar to that of the ground-state geometry. The lack of structure at shorter wavelengths could be evidence of a short excited-state lifetime arising from strong vibronic coupling. From simplified molecular orbital analysis, we attributed the ClSO spectrum to transitions involving the out-of-plane π/π* orbitals along the S-O bond and the in-plane orbital possessing a σ/σ* character along the S-Cl bond. We hypothesize that these orbitals are common to other sulfinyl radicals, RSO, which would share a combination of a strong and a weak transition in the UV (near 300 nm) and visible (400-600 nm) regions.

Abstract
Two new sulfinyl radicals, CHF2SO˙ and CH2FSO˙, have been generated in the gas phase through homolytic cleavage of the weak S-S bonds in disulfane oxides CHF2S(O)SCF3 and CH2FS(O)SCF3 by high-vacuum flash pyrolysis (HVFP) at ca. 500 °C. The IR spectroscopy characterization of the two fluoromethylsulfinyl radicals in solid N2 (10 K), Ar (10 K), and Ne (3 K) matrices reveals the presence of two conformers for CHF2SO˙ (gauche and cis) and one conformer for CH2FSO˙ (gauche). Upon 266 nm laser irradiation, these radicals undergo both isomerization and decomposition in the matrices. In addition to the dominant formation of the elusive oxathiyl radicals CHF2OS˙ (gauche and cis) and CH2FOS˙ (gauche) via 1,2-alkyl migration, two higher-energy carbon-centered radicals ˙CF2SOH and ˙CHFSOH bearing similar molecular structures to hydroperoxyalkyl radicals (˙QOOH) form via intramolecular 1,3-hydrogen shift in the two sulfinyl radicals. Additionally, the involvement of 1,3-hydrogen shift in CHF2OS˙ and CH2FOS˙ is also indicated by the observation of the fragmentation species. The identification of these radicals by matrix-isolation IR and UV-vis spectroscopy is aided by the quantum chemical calculations at the B3LYP/6-311++G(3df,3pd) level of theory. The stability of the isomers of the two sulfinyl radicals CHF2SO˙ and CH2FSO˙ has been discussed according to the experimental observations and also based on the CCSD(T)-F12a/aug-cc-pVTZ//B3LYP/6-311++G(3df,3pd) calculated energy profiles.

Abstract
The atmospheric oxidation of dimethyl sulfide (DMS) yields sulfuric acid and methane sulfonic acid (MSA), which are key precursors to new particles formed via homogeneous nucleation and further cluster growth in air masses. Comprehensive experimental and theoretical studies have suggested that the oxidation of DMS involves the formation of the methylthio radical (CH3S•), followed by its O2-oxidation reaction via the intermediacy of free radicals CH3SOx• (x = 1-4). Therefore, capturing these transient radicals and disclosing their reactivity are of vital importance in understanding the complex mechanism. Here, we report an optimized method for efficient gas-phase generation of CH3S• through flash pyrolysis of S-nitrosothiol CH3SNO, enabling us to study the O2-oxidation of CH3S• by combining matrix-isolation spectroscopy (IR and UV-vis) with quantum chemical computations at the CCSD(T)/aug-cc-pV(X + d)Z (X = D and T) level of theory. As the key intermediate for the initial oxidation of CH3S•, the peroxyl radical CH3SOO• forms by reacting with O2. Upon irradiation at 830 nm, CH3SOO• undergoes isomerization to the sulfonyl radical CH3SO2• in cryogenic matrixes (Ar, Ne, and N2), and the latter can further combine with O2 to yield another peroxyl radical CH3S(O)2OO• upon further irradiation at 440 nm. Subsequent UV-light irradiation (266 nm) causes dissociation of CH3S(O)2OO• to CH3SO2•, CH2O, SO2, and SO3. The IR spectroscopic identification of the two peroxyl radicals CH3SOO• and CH3S(O)2OO• is also supported by 18O- and 13C-isotope labeling experiments.

Abstract
The simplest α,β-unsaturated sulfinyl radical CH2[double bond, length as m-dash]C(H)SO˙ has been generated in the gas phase by high-vacuum flash pyrolysis (HVFP) of sulfoxide CH2[double bond, length as m-dash]C(H)S(O)CF3 at ca. 800 °C. Two planar cis and trans conformers of CH2[double bond, length as m-dash]C(H)SO˙ were isolated in cryogenic matrixes (N2, Ne, and Ar) and characterized with IR and UV/Vis spectroscopy. In addition to the photo-induced cis ⇋ trans conformational interconversion, CH2[double bond, length as m-dash]C(H)SO˙ displays complex photochemistry. Upon irradiation with a purple light LED (400 nm), CH2[double bond, length as m-dash]C(H)SO˙ isomerizes to novel radicals CH3SCO˙, ˙CH2SC(O)H, and ˙CH2C(O)SH with concomitant dissociation to a caged molecular complex CH3S˙CO. Subsequent UV-laser (266 nm) irradiation causes fragmentation to ˙CH3/OCS and additional formation of an elusive carbonyl radical CH3C(O)S˙, which rearranges to ˙CH2C(O)SH upon further UV-light irradiation (365 nm). The vibrational data and bonding analysis of the two conformers of CH2[double bond, length as m-dash]C(H)SO˙ suggest that both are floppy radicals in which the unpaired electron conjugates with the vicinal π(C[double bond, length as m-dash]C) bond, leading to significant contribution of the canonical resonance form of ˙CH2-C(H)SO. The mechanism for the isomerization of CH2[double bond, length as m-dash]C(H)SO˙ is discussed based on the observed intermediates along with a computed potential energy profile at the CCSD(T)-F12a/aug-cc-pVTZ//B3LYP/6-311++G(3df,3pd) level of theory.

Abstract
The initial oxidation product of dimethyl sulfide in the marine boundary layer, the methyl thiomethyl radical, has remained elusive. A structurally analogous biradical with one radical center in the α-position to a sulfur atom could now be obtained by UV irradiation of p-nitrobenzaldehyde dithiane isolated in solid dinitrogen (N2) or Ar at cryogenic temperatures. A spin-forbidden reaction with triplet dioxygen (3O2) does not occur. The dithiane of o-nitrobenzaldehyde rather undergoes a series of rearrangements under the same conditions, resulting in overall photodeprotection.

Abstract
Two atmospherically relevant dihalogenated methylperoxy radicals CHX2 OO. (X=F and Cl) have been generated through O2 -oxidation of the corresponding alkyl radicals CHX2 . in the gas phase. The IR spectroscopic characterization of both radicals in cryogenic Ar- and N2 -matrices (15 K) is supported by 18 O-labeling and ab initio calculations at the UCCSD(T)/aug-cc-pVTZ level. Upon 266 nm laser irradiation, both radicals decompose mainly by releasing hydroxyl radicals (→HO. +X2 CO) via the intermediacy of intriguing α-hydroperoxyalkyl radicals (. CX2 OOH), implying that the photooxidation of dihalogenated hydrocarbons might serve as important sources of HO. radicals in the atmosphere.

Abstract
The large number and amounts of volatile organosulfur compounds emitted to the atmosphere and the enormous variety of their reactions in various oxidation states make experimental measurements of even a small fraction of them a daunting task. Dimethyl sulfide (DMS) is a product of biological processes involving marine phytoplankton, and it is estimated to account for approximately 60% of the total natural sulfur gases released to the atmosphere. Ocean-emitted DMS has been suggested to play a role in atmospheric aerosol formation and thereby cloud formation. The reaction of ·OH with DMS is known to proceed by two independent channels: abstraction and addition. The oxidation of DMS is believed to be initiated by the reaction with ·OH and NO3· radicals, which eventually leads to the formation of sulfuric acid (H2SO4) and methanesulfonic acid (CH3SO3H). The reaction of DMS with NO3· appears to proceed exclusively by hydrogen abstraction. The oxidation of DMS consists of a complex sequence of reactions. Depending on the time of the day or altitude, it may take a variety of pathways. In general, however, the oxidation proceeds via chains of radical reactions. Dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) has been reported to be a major product of the addition channel. Dimethyl sulfone (DMSO2), SO2, CH3SO3H, and methanesulfinic acid (CH3S(O)OH) have been observed as products of further oxidation of DMSO. Understanding the details of DMS oxidation requires in-depth knowledge of the elementary steps of this seemingly simple transformation, which in turn requires a combination of experimental and theoretical methods. The methylthiyl (CH3S·), methylsulfinyl (CH3SO·), methylsulfonyl (CH3SO2·), and methylsulfonyloxyl (CH3SO3·) radicals have been postulated as intermediates in the oxidation of DMS. Therefore, studying the chemistry of sulfur-containing free radicals in the laboratory also is the basis for understanding the mechanism of DMS oxidation in the atmosphere. The application of matrix-isolation techniques in combination with quantum-mechanical calculations on the generation and structural elucidation of CH3SOx (x = 0-3) radicals is reviewed in the present Account. Experimental matrix IR and UV/vis data for all known species of this substance class are summarized together with data obtained using other spectroscopic techniques, including time-resolved spectroscopy, electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy, and others. We also discuss the reactivity and experimental characterization of these species to illustrate their practical relevance and highlight spectroscopic techniques available for the elucidation of their geometric and electronic structures. The present Account summarizes recent results regarding the preparation, characterization, and reactivity of various radical species with the formula CH3SOx (x = 0-3).
