Kinetic Studies on the Photo-oxidation Reactions of Methyl-2-methyl Butanoate and Methyl-3-methyl Butanoate with OH Radicals
Kinetics for the reactions of methyl-2-methyl butanoate (M2MB) and methyl-3-methyl butanoate (M3MB) with OH radicals were carried out using the relative rate technique with gas chromatography-flame ionization detection (RR-GC-FID) in the temperature range of 268363 K and at 760 Torr of N. The temperature-dependent rate coefficients (k in cm) for the reaction of M2MB with OH radicals from 268 to 363 K were measured to be kM2MB + OH = (4.62 +/- 1.50) X 10, kM2MB + OH = (4.46 +/- 1.41) X 10, kM2MB + OH = (4.27 +/- 1.20) X10 = (3.99 +/- 1.06) X 10 M2MB + OH= (3.65 +/- 0.94) X 10, respectively. Similarly, the temperature-dependent kinetics for the reaction of M3MB with OH radicals were measured to be k M2MB + OH = (4.49 +/- 1.46) X 10 M2MB + OH = (4.40 +/- 1.36) X 10 = (4.14 +/- 1.18) x 10 M2MB + OH = (3.90 +/- 1.06) x 10 respectively. Furthermore, computational calculations were carried out for the title reactions using the CVT/SCT/ISPE method. In addition to this, the product analyses for the studied reactions were elucidated using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and gas chromatography-infrared spectroscopy (GC-IR) as analytical tools. Based on the identified products, the possible degradation mechanisms were proposed. Atmospheric lifetimes, radiative forcings (RFs), global warming potentials (GWPs), and photochemical ozone creation potentials (POCPs) were also estimated.
