摘要: Anthropogenic emissions of aromatic hydrocarbons promptly react with hydroxyl radicals undergoing oxidation to form phenols and polyphenols (e.g., catechol) typically identified in the complex mixture humic-like substances (HULIS). Because further processing secondary organic aerosols (SOA) can continue mediated by a mechanism ozonolysis at interfaces, better understanding about how these reactions proceed air–water interface is needed. This work shows catechol, molecular probe oxygenated present SOA, contribute interfacial reactive species that enhance production HULIS under atmospheric conditions. Reactive semiquinone are quickly produced upon encounter 40 ppbv–6.0 ppmv O3(g) microdroplets containing [catechol] = 1–150 μM. While previous pathway results instantaneous formation mono- polyhydroxylated rings (PHA) chromophoric quinones (PHQ), dif...
