Abstract
Criegee intermediates, formed by alkene ozonolysis in the troposphere, can react with volatile organic compounds (VOCs). The temperature-dependent kinetics of the reactions between the Criegee intermediate CH2OO and three aliphatic aldehydes, RCHO where R = H, CH3, and C2H5 (formaldehyde, acetaldehyde, and propionaldehyde, respectively), have been studied using a laser flash-photolysis transient absorption spectroscopy technique. The experimental measurements are supported by ab initio calculations at various composite levels of theory that characterize stationary points on the reaction potential and free energy surfaces. As with other reactions of CH2OO with organic carbonyls, the mechanisms involve 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition at the C=O group, over submerged barriers, leading to the formation of 1,2,4-trioxolane secondary ozonides. The bimolecular rate constants of all three reactions decrease with increasing temperature over the range 275-335 K and are characterized by equations of Arrhenius form: k(T) = (7.1 ± 1.5) × 10-14exp((1160 ± 60)/T), (8.9 ± 1.7) × 10-15exp((1530 ± 60)/T), and (5.3 ± 1.3) × 10-14exp((1210 ± 70)/T) cm3 s-1 for HCHO, CH3CHO, and C2H5CHO, respectively. Based on estimated concentrations of CH2OO, the reactions with aldehydes are unlikely to play a significant role in the atmosphere.

Abstract
The reaction of unsaturated compounds with ozone (O3) is recognized to lead to the formation of Criegee intermediates (CIs), which play a key role in controlling the atmospheric budget of hydroxyl radicals and secondary organic aerosols. The reaction network of two CIs with different functionality, i.e. acetaldehyde oxide (CH3CHOO) and glyoxal oxide (CHOCHOO) formed in the ozone-assisted oxidation reaction of crotanaldehyde (CA), is investigated over a temperature range between 390 K and 840 K in an atmospheric pressure jet-stirred reactor (JSR) at a residence time of 1.3 s, stoichiometry of 0.5 with a mixture of 1% crotonaldehyde, 10% O2, at an fixed ozone concentration of 1000 ppm and 89% Ar dilution. Molecular-beam mass spectrometry in conjunction with single photon tunable synchrotron vacuum-ultraviolet (VUV) radiation is used to identify elusive intermediates by means of experimental photoionization energy scans and ab initio threshold energy calculations for isomer identification. Addition of ozone (1000 ppm) is observed to trigger the oxidation of CA already at 390 K, which is below the temperature where the oxidation reaction of CA was observed in the absence of ozone. The observed CA + O3 product, C4H6O4, is found to be linked to a ketohydroperoxide (2-hydroperoxy-3-oxobutanal) resulting from the isomerization of the primary ozonide. Products corresponding to the CIs uni- and bi-molecular reactions were observed and identified. A network of CI reactions is identified in the temperature region below 600 K, characterized by CIs bimolecular reactions with species like aldehydes, i.e., formaldehyde, acetaldehyde, and crotonaldehyde and alkenes, i.e., ethene and propene. The region below 600 K is also characterized by the formation of important amounts of typical low-temperature oxidation products, such as hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), methyl hydroperoxide (CH3OOH), and ethyl hydroperoxide (C2H5OOH). Detection of additional oxygenated species such as alcohols, ketene, and aldehydes are indicative of multiple active oxidation routes. This study provides important information about the initial step involved in the CIs assisted oligomerization reactions in complex reactive environments where CIs with different functionalities are reacting simultaneously. It provides new mechanistic insights into ozone-assisted oxidation reactions of unsaturated aldehydes, which is critical for the development of improved atmospheric and combustion kinetics models.

Abstract
Criegee intermediates exert a crucial influence on atmospheric chemistry, functioning as powerful oxidants that facilitate the degradation of pollutants, and understanding their reaction kinetics is essential for accurate atmospheric modeling. In this study, the kinetics of CH2OO and syn-CH3CHOO reactions with acetaldehyde (CH3CHO) were investigated using a flash photolysis reaction tube coupled with the OH laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) method. The experimental results indicate that the reaction of syn-CH3CHOO with CH3CHO is independent of pressure in the range of 5-50 Torr when using Ar as the bath gas. However, the rate coefficient for the reaction between CH2OO and CH3CHO at 5.5 Torr was found to be lower compared to the near-constant values observed between 10 and 100 Torr. Furthermore, the reaction of syn-CH3CHOO with CH3CHO demonstrated positive temperature dependence from 283 to 330 K, with a rate coefficient of (2.11 ± 0.45) × 10-13 cm3 molecule-1 s-1 at 298 K. The activation energy and pre-exponential factor derived from the Arrhenius plot for this reaction were determined to be 2.32 ± 0.49 kcal mol-1 and (1.66 ± 0.61) × 10-11 cm3 molecule-1 s-1, respectively. In comparison, the reaction of CH2OO with CH3CHO exhibited negative temperature dependence, with a rate coefficient of (2.16 ± 0.39) × 10-12 cm3 molecule-1 s-1 at 100 Torr and 298 K and an activation energy and a pre-exponential factor of -1.73 ± 0.31 kcal mol-1 and (1.15 ± 0.21) × 10-13 cm3 molecule-1 s-1, respectively, over the temperature range of 280-333 K.

Abstract
Experimental and theoretical studies were carried out to investigate the ozonolysis of trans-2-methyl-2-pentenal. The experiments were conducted in atmospheric simulation chambers coupled to a Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectrometer and a gas chromatograph-mass spectrometer at room temperature and atmospheric pressure in the presence of an excess of cyclohexane in dry conditions (RH < 1%). The ozonolysis reaction was investigated theoretically from the results of accurate density functional (M06-2X) and ab initio [CCSD(T)] computations, employing the AVTZ basis set. The sequence of reaction steps was established, and the system of kinetics equations was modeled using MESMER. In the first step, a primary ozonide is formed, which then decomposes along two pathways. The principal ozonolysis products are propanal, methylglyoxal, ethylformate, and a secondary ozonide. An interesting competition between sequential reaction steps and well-skipping is found, which leads to an inversion of the expected methylglyoxal/propanal product ratio at temperatures below 210 K. The mechanism of the "hot ester" reaction channel of the Criegee intermediate was revisited. The computed ozonolysis rate constant and product branching ratio are in excellent agreement with the experimental data that are also reported in the present work.

Abstract
The reactions of the simplest Criegee intermediate (CH2OO) with n-butyraldehyde (nBD) and isobutyraldehyde (iBD) were studied at 253-318 K and (50 ± 2) torr, using Cavity Ring-down spectroscopy (CRDS). The rate coefficients obtained at room temperature were (2.63 ± 0.14) × 10-12 and (2.20 ± 0.21) × 10-12 cm3 molecule-1 s-1 for nBD and iBD, respectively. Both the reactions show negative temperature-dependency, following equations, knBD(T = 253-318 K) = (11.51 ± 4.33) × 10-14 × exp{(918.1 ± 107.2)/T} and kiBD(T = 253-318 K) = (6.23 ± 2.29) × 10-14 × exp{(1051.4 ± 105.2)/T} cm3 molecule-1 s-1. High-pressure limit rate coefficients were determined from theoretical calculations at the CCSD(T)-F12/cc-pVTZ-F12//B3LYP/6-311+G(2df, 2p) level of theory, with <40% deviation from the experimental results at room temperature and above. The kinetic simulations were performed using a master equation solver to predict the temperature-dependency of the rate coefficients at the experimental pressure, as well as to predict the contribution of individual pathways. The major products predicted from the theoretical calculations were formaldehyde and formic acid, along with butyric acid from nBD and isobutyric acid from iBD reactions.

Abstract
Ozonolysis of isoprene is considered to be an important source of formic acid (HCOOH), but its underlying reaction mechanisms related to HCOOH formation are poorly understood. Here, we report the kinetic and product studies of the reaction between the simplest Criegee intermediate (CH2OO) and formaldehyde (HCHO), both of which are the primary products formed in ozonolysis of isoprene. By utilizing time-resolved infrared laser spectrometry with the multifunctional dual-comb spectrometers, the rate coefficient kCH2OO+HCHO is determined to be (4.11 ± 0.25) × 10-12 cm3 molecule-1 s-1 at 296 K and a negative temperature dependence of the rate coefficient is observed and described by an Arrhenius expression with an activation energy of (-1.81 ± 0.04) kcal mol-1. Moreover, the branching ratios of the reaction products HCOOH + HCHO and CO + H2O + HCHO are explored. The yield of HCOOH is obtained to be 37-54% over the pressure (15-60 Torr) and temperature (283-313 K) ranges. The atmospheric implications of the reaction CH2OO + HCHO are also evaluated by incorporating these results into a global chemistry-transport model. In the upper troposphere, the percent loss of CH2OO by HCHO is found by up to 6% which can subsequently increase HCOOH mixing ratios by up to 2% during December-January-February months.

Abstract
The detailed reaction mechanism and kinetics of the C3H3 + CH2OO system have been thoroughly investigated. The CBS-QB3 method in conjunction with the ME/vRRKM theory has been applied to figure out the potential energy surface and rate constants for the C3H3 + CH2OO system. The C3H3 + CH2OO reaction leading to the CH2-[cyc-CCHCHOO] + H product dominates compared to the others. Rate constants of the reaction are dependent on temperatures (300-2000 K) and pressures (1-76,000 Torr), for which the rate constant of the channel C3H3 + CH2OO → CH2-[cyc-CCHCHOO] + H decreases at low pressures (1-76 Torr), but it increases with rising temperature if the pressure P ≥ 760 Torr. Rate constants of the three reaction channels C3H3 + CH2OO → CHCCH2CHO + OH, C3H3 + CH2OO → OCHCHCHCHO + H, and C3H3 + CH2OO → CHCHCHO + CH2O fluctuate with temperatures. The branching ratio of the C3H3 + CH2OO → CH2-[cyc-CCHCHOO] + H channel is the highest, accounting for 51-98.7% in the temperature range of 300-2000 K and 760 Torr pressure, while those of the channels forming the products PR10 (OCHCHCHCHO + H) and PR11 (CHCHCHO + CH2O) are the lowest, less than 0.1%, indicating that the contribution of these two reaction paths to the title reaction is insignificant. The proposed temperature- and pressure-dependent rate constants, together with the thermodynamic data of the species involved, can be confidently used for modeling CH2OO-related systems under atmospheric and combustion conditions.

Abstract
Given the high abundance of water in the atmosphere, the reaction of Criegee intermediates (CIs) with (H2O)2 is considered to be the predominant removal pathway for CIs. However, recent experimental findings reported that the reactions of CIs with organic acids and carbonyls are faster than expected. At the same time, the interface behavior between CIs and carbonyls has not been reported so far. Here, the gas-phase and air-water interface behavior between Criegee intermediates and HCHO were explored by adopting high-level quantum chemical calculations and Born-Oppenheimer molecular dynamics (BOMD) simulations. Quantum chemical calculations evidence that the gas-phase reactions of CIs + HCHO are submerged energy or low energy barriers processes. The rate ratios speculate that the HCHO could be not only a significant tropospheric scavenger of CIs, but also an inhibitor in the oxidizing ability of CIs on SOx in dry and highly polluted areas with abundant HCHO concentration. The reactions of CH2OO with HCHO at the droplet's surface follow a loop structure mechanism to produce i) SOZ (), ii) BHMP (HOCH2OOCH2OH), and iii) HMHP (HOCH2OOH). Considering the harsh reaction conditions between CIs and HCHO at the interface (i.e., the two molecules must be sufficiently close to each other), the hydration of CIs is still their main atmospheric loss pathway. These results could help us get a better interpretation of the underlying CIs-aldehydes chemical processes in the global polluted urban atmospheres.

Abstract
Criegee intermediates, formed from the ozonolysis of alkenes, are known to have a role in atmospheric chemistry, including the modulation of the oxidizing capacity of the troposphere. Although studies have been conducted since their discovery, the synthesis of these species in the laboratory has ushered in a new wave of investigations of these structures, both theoretically and experimentally. In some of these theoretical studies, high-order corrections for correlation energy are included to account for the mid multi-reference character found in these systems. Many of these studies include a focus on kinetics; therefore, the calculated energies should be accurate (<1 kcal/mol in error). In this research, we compute the enthalpies of formation for a small set of Criegee intermediates, including higher-order coupled cluster corrections for correlation energy up to coupled cluster with perturbative quintuple excitations. The enthalpies of formation for formaldehyde oxide, anti-acetaldehyde oxide, syn-acetaldehyde oxide, and acetone oxide are presented at 0 K as 26.5, 15.6, 12.2, and 0.1 kcal mol-1, respectively. Additionally, we do not recommend the coupled cluster with perturbative quadruple excitations [CCSDT(Q)] energy correction, as it is approximately twice as large as that of the coupled cluster with full quadruple excitations (CCSDTQ). Half of the CCSDT(Q) energy correction may be included as a reliable, cost-effective estimation of CCSDTQ energies for Criegee intermediates.

Abstract
We have performed direct kinetic measurements of the CH2OO + RCN reactions (R = H, CH3, C2H5) in the temperature range 233-360 K and pressure range 10-250 Torr using time-resolved UV-absorption spectroscopy. We have utilized a new photolytic precursor, chloroiodomethane (CH2ICl), whose photolysis at 193 nm in the presence of O2 produces CH2OO. Observed bimolecular rate coefficients for CH2OO + HCN, CH2OO + CH3CN, and CH2OO + C2H5CN reactions at 296 K are (2.22 ± 0.65) × 10-14 cm3 molecule-1 s-1, (1.02 ± 0.10) × 10-14 cm3 molecule-1 s-1, and (2.55 ± 0.13) × 10-14 cm3 molecule-1 s-1, respectively, suggesting that reaction with CH2OO is a potential atmospheric degradation pathway for nitriles. All the reactions have negligible temperature and pressure dependence in the studied regions. Quantum chemical calculations (ωB97X-D/aug-cc-pVTZ optimization with CCSD(T)-F12a/VDZ-F12 electronic energy correction) of the CH2OO + RCN reactions indicate that the barrierless lowest-energy reaction path leads to a ring closure, resulting in the formation of a 1,2,4-dioxazole compound. Master equation modeling results suggest that following the ring closure, chemical activation in the case of CH2OO + HCN and CH2OO + CH3CN reactions leads to a rapid decomposition of 1,2,4-dioxazole into a CH2O + RNCO pair, or by a rearrangement, into a formyl amide (RC(O)NHC(O)H), followed by decomposition into CO and an imidic acid (RC(NH)OH). The 1,2,4-dioxazole, the CH2O + RNCO pair, and the CO + RC(NH)OH pair are atmospherically significant end products to varying degrees.

CHEMOSPHERE 2023; 312:137217. [PMID: 36370759 DOI: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2022.137217] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/10/2022] [Revised: 11/05/2022] [Accepted: 11/08/2022] [Indexed: 06/16/2023]
Abstract
The temperature-dependent kinetics was investigated for the reaction of the simplest Criegee intermediate (CH2OO) with Methyl-ethyl ketone (CH3COC2H5, MEK). A direct method was employed to measure the rate of change of the concentration of CH2OO using a highly sensitive Pulsed Laser Photolysis-Cavity Ring-down Spectroscopy (PLP-CRDS) technique. The temperature dependent rate coefficient obtained for the CH2OO + MEK reaction was k4(T = 258-318 K) = (1.26 ± 0.16) × 10-14 × exp{(1179.1 ± 71.8)/T} cm3 molecule-1 s-1 and the rate coefficient at room temperature was k4(298 K) = (6.39 ± 0.20) × 10-13 cm3 molecule-1 s-1 at 50 Torr/N2. Theoretical calculations were performed to predict the reaction mechanism and probable end products. The secondary ozonide (SOZ) formation pathway was found to be the rate determining step, which gets decomposed into HCOOH and MEK as the major products. Both experimental and theoretical results show a negative T-dependency in the studied range.

Abstract
Algorithmic reaction exploration based on transition state searches has already made inroads into many niche applications, but its potential as a general-purpose tool is still largely unrealized. Computational cost and the absence of benchmark problems involving larger molecules remain obstacles to further progress. Here an ultra-low cost exploration algorithm is implemented and used to explore the reactivity of unimolecular and bimolecular reactants, comprising a total of 581 reactions involving 51 distinct reactants. The algorithm discovers all established reaction pathways, where such comparisons are possible, while also revealing a much richer reactivity landscape, including lower barrier reaction pathways and a strong dependence of reaction conformation in the apparent barriers of the reported reactions. The diversity of these benchmarks illustrate that reaction exploration algorithms are approaching general-purpose capability.

Abstract
1,2,4-Trioxolanes, known as secondary ozonides (SOZs), are key products of ozonolysis of biogenic terpenoids. Functionalized terpenoid-derived SOZs are readily taken up into atmospheric aerosols; however, their condensed-phase fates remain unknown. Here, we report the results of a time-dependent mass spectrometric investigation into the liquid-phase fates of C10 and C13 SOZs synthesized by ozonolysis of a C10 monoterpene alcohol (α-terpineol) in water:acetone (1:1 = vol:vol) mixtures. Isomerization of Criegee intermediates and bimolecular reaction of Criegee intermediates with acetone produced C10 and C13 SOZs, respectively, which were detected as their Na+-adducts by positive-ion electrospray mass spectrometry. Use of CD3COCD3, D2O, and H218O solvents enabled identification of three types of C13 SOZs (aldehyde, ketone, and lactol) and other products. These SOZs were surprisingly stable in water:acetone (1:1) mixtures at T = 298 K, with some persisting for at least a week. Theoretical calculations supported the high stability of the lactol-type C13 SOZ formed from the aldehyde-type C13 SOZ via intramolecular rearrangement. The present results suggest that terpenoid-derived SOZs can persist in atmospheric condensed phases, potentially until they are delivered to the epithelial lining fluid of the pulmonary alveoli via inhaled particulate matter, where they may exert hitherto unrecognized adverse health effects.

Abstract
Methods rooted in the density functional theory and in the coupled cluster ansatz were employed to investigate the cycloaddition reactions to ethylene and acetylene of 1,3-dipolar species including ozone and the derivatives issued from replacement of the central oxygen atom by the valence-isoelectronic sulfur atom, and/or of one or both terminal oxygen atoms by the isoelectronic CH2 group. This gives rise to five different 1,3-dipolar compounds, namely ozone itself (O3 ), sulfur dioxide (SO2 ), the simplest Criegee intermediate (CH2 OO), sulfine (CH2 SO), and thioformaldehyde S-methylide (CH2 SCH2 , TSM). The experimental and accurate theoretical data available for some of those molecules were employed to assess the accuracy of two last-generation composite methods employing conventional or explicitly correlated post-Hartree-Fock contributions (jun-Cheap and SVECV-f12, respectively), which were then applied to investigate the reactivity of TSM. The energy barriers provided by both composite methods are very close (the average values for the two composite methods are 7.1 and 8.3 kcal mol-1 for the addition to ethylene and acetylene, respectively) and comparable to those ruling the corresponding additions of ozone (4.0 and 7.7 kcal mol-1 , respectively). These and other evidences strongly suggest that, at least in the case of cycloadditions, the reactivity of TSM is similar to that of O3 and very different from that of SO2 .

Abstract
Criegee intermediates are important oxidants produced in the ozonolysis of alkenes in the atmosphere. Quantitative kinetics of the reactions of Criegee intermediates are required for atmospheric modeling. However, the experimental studies do not cover the full relevant range of temperature and pressure. Here we report the quantitative kinetics of CH2OO + CH3C(O)CH3 by using our recently developed dual strategy that combines coupled cluster theory with high excitation levels for conventional transition state theory and well validated levels of density functional theory for direct dynamics calculations using canonical variational transition theory including tunneling. We find that the W3X-L//DF-CCSD(T)-F12b/jun-cc-pVDZ electronic structure method can be used to obtain quantitative kinetics of the CH2OO + CH3C(O)CH3 reaction. Whereas previous investigations considered a one-step mechanistic pathway, we find that the CH2OO + CH3C(O)CH3 reaction occurs in a stepwise manner. This has implications for the modeling of Criegee-intermediate reactions with other ketones and with aldehydes. In the kinetics calculations, we show that recrossing effects of the conventional transition state are negligible for determining the rate constant of CH2OO + CH3C(O)CH3. The present findings reveal that the rate ratio between CH2OO + CH3C(O)CH3 and OH + CH3C(O)CH3 has a significant negative dependence on temperature such that the CH2OO + CH3C(O)CH3 reaction can contribute as a significant sink for atmospheric CH3C(O)CH3 at low temperature. The present findings should have broad implications in understanding the reactions of Criegee intermediates with carbonyl compounds and ketones in the atmosphere.

Abstract
Uni- and bi-molecular reactions involving Criegee intermediates (CIs) have been the focus of many studies due to the role these molecules play in atmospheric chemistry. The reactivity of CIs is known to strongly depend on their structure. The reaction network of the second simplest CI, acetaldehyde oxide (CH3CHOO), is investigated in this work in an atmospheric pressure jet-stirred reactor (JSR) during the ozonolysis of trans-2-butene to explore the kinetic pathways relevant to atmospheric chemistry and low-temperature combustion. The mole fraction profiles of reactants, intermediates, and final products are determined by means of molecular-beam mass spectrometry in conjunction with single-photon ionization employing tunable synchrotron-generated vacuum ultraviolet radiation. A network of CI reactions is identified in the temperature region below 600 K, characterized by CI addition to trans-2-butene, water, formaldehyde, formic acid, and methanol. No sequential additions of the CH3CHOO CI are observed, in contrast with the reactivity of the simplest CI (H2COO) and the earlier observation of an extensive reaction network with up to four H2COO sequential additions (Phys. Chem. Chem. Phys., 2019, 21, 7341-7357). Experimental photoionization efficiency scans recorded at 300 K and 425 K and ab initio threshold energy calculations lead to the identification and quantification of previously elusive intermediates, such as ketohydroperoxide and hydroperoxide species. Specifically, the C4H8 + O3 adduct is identified as a ketohydroperoxide (KHP, 3-hydroperoxybutan-2-one, CH3C(O)CH(CH3)OOH), while hydroxyacetaldehyde (glycolaldehyde, HCOCH2OH) formation is attributed to unimolecular isomerization of the CIs. Other hydroperoxide species such as methyl hydroperoxide (CH3OOH), ethyl hydroperoxide (C2H5OOH), butyl hydroperoxide (OOH), hydroperoxyl acetaldehyde (HOOCH2CHO), hydroxyethyl hydroperoxide (CH3CH(OH)OOH), but-1-enyl-3-hydroperoxide, and 4-hydroxy-3-methylpentan-2-one (HOCH(CH3)CH(CH3)C(O)CH3) are also identified. Detection of additional oxygenated species such as methanol, ethanol, ketene, and aldehydes suggests multiple active oxidation routes. These results provide additional evidence that CIs are key intermediates of the ozone-unsaturated hydrocarbon reactions providing critical inputs for improved kinetics models.

Abstract
Rate constants for the reactions between the simplest Criegee intermediate, CH2OO, with acetone, the α-diketones biacetyl and acetylpropionyl, and the β-diketones acetylacetone and 3,3-dimethyl-2,4-pentanedione have been measured at 295 K. CH2OO was produced photochemically in a flow reactor by 355 nm laser flash photolysis of diiodomethane in the presence of excess oxygen. Time-dependent concentrations were measured using broadband transient absorption spectroscopy, and the reaction kinetics was characterized under pseudo-first-order conditions. The bimolecular rate constant for the CH2OO + acetone reaction is measured to be (4.1 ± 0.4) × 10-13 cm3 s-1, consistent with previous measurements. The reactions of CH2OO with the β-diketones acetylacetone and 3,3-dimethyl-2,5-pentanedione are found to have broadly similar rate constants of (6.6 ± 0.7) × 10-13 and (3.5 ± 0.8) × 10-13 cm3 s-1, respectively; these values may be cautiously considered as upper limits. In contrast, α-diketones react significantly faster, with rate constants of (1.45 ± 0.18) × 10-11 and (1.29 ± 0.15) × 10-11 cm3 s-1 measured for biacetyl and acetylpropionyl. The potential energy surfaces for these 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reactions are characterized at the M06-2X/aug-cc-pVTZ and CBS-QB3 levels of theory and provide additional support to the observed experimental trends. The reactivity of carbonyl compounds with CH2OO is also interpreted by application of frontier molecular orbital theory and predicted using Hammett substituent constants. Finally, the results are compared with other kinetic studies of Criegee intermediate reactions with carbonyl compounds and discussed within the context of their atmospheric relevance.

Abstract
After more than 70 years since their discovery, Criegee intermediates (CIs) are back at the forefront of modern chemistry of short-lived reactive intermediates. They play an important role in the mechanistic context of chemical synthesis, total synthesis, pharmaceuticals, and, most importantly, climate-controlling aerosol formation as well as atmospheric chemistry. This Minireview summarizes key aspects of CIs (from the mechanism of formation, for example, by ozonolysis of alkenes and photolysis methods employing diiodo and diazo compounds, to their electronic structures and chemical reactivity), highlights the most recent findings and some landmark results of gas-phase kinetics, and detection/measurements. The recent progress in synthetic and mechanistic studies in the chemistry of CIs provides a guide to illustrate the possibilities for further investigations in this exciting field.

Abstract
Automated reaction prediction has the potential to elucidate complex reaction networks for applications ranging from combustion to materials degradation, but computational cost and inconsistent reaction coverage are still obstacles to exploring deep reaction networks. Here we show that cost can be reduced and reaction coverage can be increased simultaneously by relatively straightforward modifications of the reaction enumeration, geometry initialization and transition state convergence algorithms that are common to many prediction methodologies. These components are implemented in the context of yet another reaction program (YARP), our reaction prediction package with which we report reaction discovery benchmarks for organic single-step reactions, thermal degradation of a γ-ketohydroperoxide, and competing ring-closures in a large organic molecule. Compared with recent benchmarks, YARP (re)discovers both established and unreported reaction pathways and products while simultaneously reducing the cost of reaction characterization by nearly 100-fold and increasing convergence of transition states. This combination of ultra-low cost and high reaction coverage creates opportunities to explore the reactivity of larger systems and more complex reaction networks for applications such as chemical degradation, where computational cost is a bottleneck.

Abstract
The kinetics for the reactions of CH2OO and syn-CH3CHOO with acrolein, a typical unsaturated aldehyde in the atmosphere, were studied in a flash photolysis flow reactor using the OH laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) method. The bimolecular reaction rate coefficients were measured at temperatures ranging from 281 to 318 K, and pressures ranging from 5 to 200 Torr. No obvious dependence of the rate coefficients on pressure was observed under the current experimental conditions. Both reactions exhibit negative temperature-dependence, with an activation energy of (-1.70 ± 0.19) and (-1.47 ± 0.24) kcal mol-1 for CH2OO and syn-CH3CHOO reacting with acrolein, derived from the Arrhenius equation. At 298 K, the measured rate coefficients for CH2OO/syn-CH3CHOO + acrolein reactions are (1.63 ± 0.19) × 10-12 cm3 s-1 and (1.17 ± 0.16) × 10-13 cm3 s-1, respectively. The rate coefficient of the former reaction is in reasonable agreement with a recent theoretical result.

Abstract
Criegee intermediates in the atmosphere serve as oxidizing agents to initiate aerosol formation, which are particularly important for atmospheric modeling, and understanding their kinetics is one of the current outstanding challenges in climate change modeling. Because experimental kinetics are still limited, we must rely on theory for the complete picture, but obtaining absolute rates from theory is a formidable task. Here, we report the bimolecular reaction kinetics of carbonyl oxide with ammonia, hydrogen sulfide, formaldehyde, and water dimer by designing a triple-level strategy that combines (i) benchmark results close to the complete-basis limit of coupled-cluster theory with the single, double, triple, and quadruple excitations (CCSDTQ/CBS), (ii) a new hybrid meta density functional (M06CR) specifically optimized for reactions of Criegee intermediates, and (iii) variational transition-state theory with both variable rection coordinates and optimized reaction paths, with multidimensional tunneling, and with pressure effects. For (i) we have found that quadruple excitations are required to obtain quantitative reaction barriers, and we designed new composite methods and strategies to reach CCSDTQ/CBS accuracy. The present findings show that (i) the CH2OO + HCHO reaction can make an important contribution to the sink of HCHO under wide atmospheric conditions in the gas phase and that (ii) CH2OO + (H2O)2 dominates over the CH2OO + H2O reaction below 10 km.

Abstract
Criegee Intermediates (CI), formed in the ozonolysis of alkenes, play a central role in tropospheric chemistry as an important source of radicals, with stabilised CI (SCI) able to participate in bimolecular reactions, affecting climate through the formation of inorganic and organic aerosol. However, total SCI yields have only been determined for a few alkene systems, while speciated SCI yields from asymmetrical alkenes are almost entirely unknown. Here we report for the first time a systematic experimental exploration of the stabilisation of CH2OO and (CH3)2COO CI, formed from ten alkene-ozone systems with a range of different sizes and structures, under atmospherically relevant conditions in the EUPHORE chamber. Experiments in the presence of excess SO2 (an SCI scavenger) determined total SCI yields from each alkene-ozone system. Comparison of primary carbonyl yields in the presence/absence of SO2 determined the stabilisation fraction of a given CI. The results show that the stabilisation of a given CI increases as the size of the carbonyl co-product increases. This is interpreted in terms of the nascent population of CI formed following decomposition of the primary ozonide (POZ) having a lower mean energy distribution when formed with a larger carbonyl co-product, as more of the energy from the POZ is taken by the carbonyl. These findings have significant implications for atmospheric modelling of alkene ozonolysis. Higher stabilisation of small CI formed from large alkenes is expected to lead to lower radical yields from CI decomposition, and higher SCI concentrations, increasing the importance of SCI bimolecular reactions.

Abstract
The kinetics of the reaction of the simplest Criegee intermediate CH2OO with CH3SH was measured with transient IR absorption spectroscopy in a temperature-controlled flow reaction cell, and the bimolecular rate coefficients were measured from 278 to 349 K and at total pressure from 10 to 300 Torr. The measured bimolecular rate coefficient at 298 K and 300 Torr is (1.01 ± 0.17) × 10-12 cm3 s-1. The results exhibit a weak negative temperature dependence: the activation energy Ea ( k = Ae- Ea/ RT) is -1.83 ± 0.05 kcal mol-1, measured at 30 and 100 Torr. Quantum chemistry calculations of the reaction rate coefficient at the QCISD(T)/CBS//B3LYP/6-311+G(2d,2p) level (1.6 × 10-12 cm3 s-1 at 298 K; Ea = - 2.80 kcal mol-1) are in reasonable agreement with the experimental results. The experimental and theoretical results of the reaction of CH2OO with CH3SH are compared to the reactions of CH2OO with methanol and hydrogen sulfide, and the trends in reactivity are discussed. The results of the present work indicate that this reaction has a negligible influence to atmospheric CH2OO or CH3SH.

Abstract
Methyl vinyl ketone (MVK) and methacrolein (MACR) are important intermediate products in atmospheric degradation of volatile organic compounds, especially of isoprene. This work investigates the reactions of the smallest Criegee intermediate, CH2OO, with its co-products from isoprene ozonolysis, MVK and MACR, using multiplexed photoionization mass spectrometry (MPIMS), with either tunable synchrotron radiation from the Advanced Light Source or Lyman-α (10.2 eV) radiation for photoionization. CH2OO was produced via pulsed laser photolysis of CH2I2 in the presence of excess O2. Time-resolved measurements of reactant disappearance and of product formation were performed to monitor reaction progress; first order rate coefficients were obtained from exponential fits to the CH2OO decays. The bimolecular reaction rate coefficients at 300 K and 4 Torr are k(CH2OO + MVK) = (5.0 ± 0.4) × 10-13 cm3 s-1 and k(CH2OO + MACR) = (4.4 ± 1.0) × 10-13 cm3 s-1, where the stated ±2σ uncertainties are statistical uncertainties. Adduct formation is observed for both reactions and is attributed to the formation of a secondary ozonides (1,2,4-trioxolanes), supported by master equation calculations of the kinetics and the agreement between measured and calculated adiabatic ionization energies. Kinetics measurements were also performed for a possible bimolecular CH2OO + CO reaction and for the reaction of CH2OO with CF3CHCH2 at 300 K and 4 Torr. For CH2OO + CO, no reaction is observed and an upper limit is determined: k(CH2OO + CO) < 2 × 10-16 cm3 s-1. For CH2OO + CF3CHCH2, an upper limit of k(CH2OO + CF3CHCH2) < 2 × 10-14 cm3 s-1 is obtained.

Abstract
Criegee intermediates (i.e., carbonyl oxides with two radical sites) are known to be important atmospheric reagents; however, our knowledge of their reaction kinetics is still limited. Although experimental methods have been developed to directly measure the reaction rate constants of stabilized Criegee intermediates, the experimental results cover limited temperature ranges and do not completely agree well with one another. Here we investigate the unimolecular reaction of acetone oxide [(CH3)2COO] and its bimolecular reaction with H2O to obtain rate constants with quantitative accuracy comparable to experimental accuracy. We do this by using CCSDT(Q)/CBS//CCSD(T)-F12a/DZ-F12 benchmark results to select and validate exchange-correlation functionals, which are then used for direct dynamics calculations by variational transition state theory with small-curvature tunneling and torsional and high-frequency anharmonicity. We find that tunneling is very significant in the unimolecular reaction of (CH3)2COO and its bimolecular reaction with H2O. We show that the atmospheric lifetimes of (CH3)2COO depend on temperature and that the unimolecular reaction of (CH3)2COO is the dominant decay mode above 240 K, while the (CH3)2COO + SO2 reaction can compete with the corresponding unimolecular reaction below 240 K when the SO2 concentration is 9 × 1010 molecules per cubic centimeter. We also find that experimental results may not be sufficiently accurate for the unimolecular reaction of (CH3)2COO above 310 K. Not only does the present investigation provide insights into the decay of (CH3)2COO in the atmosphere, but it also provides an illustration of how to use theoretical methods to predict quantitative rate constants of medium-sized Criegee intermediates.

Abstract
The influences of ammonia (NH3) on secondary organic aerosol (SOA) formation from ozonolysis of styrene have been investigated using chamber experiments and quantum chemical calculations. With the value of [O3]0/[styrene]0 ratios between 2 and 4, chamber experiments were carried out without NH3 or under different [NH3]/[styrene]0 ratios. The chamber experiments reveal that the addition of NH3 led to significant decrease of SOA yield. The overall SOA yield decreased with the [NH3]0/[styrene]0 increasing. In addition, the addition of NH3 at the beginning of the reaction or several hours after the reaction occurs had obviously different influence on the yield of SOA. Gas phase reactions of Criegee intermediates (CIs) with aldehydes and NH3 were studied in detail by theoretical methods to probe into the mechanisms behind these phenomena. The calculated results showed that 3,5-diphenyl-1,2,4-trioxolane, a secondary ozonide formed through the reactions of C6H5ĊHOO· with C6H5CHO, could make important contribution to the aerosol composition. The addition of excess NH3 may compete with aldehydes, decreasing the secondary ozonide yield to some extent and thus affect the SOA formation.
