摘要
Highly oxygenated compounds assigned to be oxidation products of alpha-pinene have recently been observed in substantial concentrations in ambient aerosols. Here, we confirm the unknown alpha- pinene tracer compound with molecular weight (MW) 204 as the C-8-tricarboxylic acid 3-methyl-1,2,3-butanetricarboxylic acid. Its gas and liquid chromatographic behaviors and its mass spectral characteristics in electron ionization and negative ion electrospray ionization perfectly agree with those of a synthesized reference compound. The formation of this compound is explained by further reaction of cis-pinonic acid involving participation of the OH radical. This study illustrates that complex, multi-generation chemistry holds for the photooxidation of alpha-pinene in the presence of NOx.
