Atmospheric sink of styrene, α-methylstyrene, trans-β-methylstyrene and indene: Rate constants and mechanisms of the Cl atoms initiated degradation
The kinetics and products of the oxidation of four aromatic compounds, i.e. styrene, α-methylstyrene, trans-β-methylstyrene and indene, with Cl atoms were determined at atmospheric pressure and room temperature. Kinetic experiments were carried out in a 400 L Teflon reaction chamber using GC-FID for...

The kinetics and products of the oxidation of four aromatic compounds, i.e. styrene, α-methylstyrene, trans-β-methylstyrene and indene, with Cl atoms were determined at atmospheric pressure and room temperature. Kinetic experiments were carried out in a 400 L Teflon reaction chamber using GC-FID for the analysis of reactants and products were determined using a 56 L quartz-glass reactor coupled to FTIR spectrophotometer. The rate constants at 298 K, using different reference compounds, were (in units of cm3 molecule−1 s−1): kstyrene = (1.29 ± 0.52)×10−10, kα-methylstyrene = (1.55 ± 0.27)×10−10, ktrans-β-methylstyrene = (1.09 ± 0.23)×10−10 and kindene = (1.01 ± 0.30)×10−10. Observations with FTIR suggest that the main reaction is the addition of the Cl to the aliphatic chain of the aromatic molecules. We found benzaldehyde, benzoyl chloride, formaldehyde and formyl chloride from styrene; acetophenone, formaldehyde and formyl chloride from α-methylstyrene; and benzaldehyde, formaldehyde and acetyl chloride from trans-β-methylstyrene as the main oxidation products. DFT theoretical calculations were performed in order to shed light on the identification of the reaction products.
