Abstract:
The aim of the research described in this proposal is to detect, for the first time in the gas phase, the carbonyl oxides (Criegee intermediates, CIs) that are generated in the reactions of ozone with alkenes. The CIs will be generated in a fast-flow system, and these important atmospheric species will be detected using sensitive, high-resolution, broadband FTIR spectroscopy. Spectral and lifetime information about the CIs will be obtained.
