摘要
A gas-phase reaction mechanism for the atmospheric photooxidations of over 100 alkanes, alkenes, aromatic hydrocarbons, alcohols, ethers and other compounds representative of the range of reactive organics emitted into polluted atmospheres is described. Most of these organic species are represented using generalized reactions with variable rate constants and product yield coefficients for which individual assignments were made or estimated. This mechanism employs 19 species to represent the reactive oxygenated and organic nitrate products, and includes the gas-phase reactions of SO2, but does not include heterogeneous or liquid-phase reactions. The evaluation of this mechanism, by comparison of its predictions against the results of over 500 environmental chamber experiments, is described in a separate paper. This detailed mechanism can be used in assessments of relative atmospheric reactivities of organic compounds, and can provide the basis for the derivation of more condensed mechanisms for use in air quality simulation models. © 2007 Elsevier Ltd.
