Rate coefficients as a function of temperature and product distribution studies have been performed for the first time for the gas-phase reactions of chlorine atoms with methyl chlorodifluoracetate (k1) and ethyl chlorodifluoroacetate (k2) using the relative rate technique.

<p>In recent years solar geoengineering has been proposed as a promising strategy to contrast global warming induced by anthropogenic CO<sub>2</sub> emissions. These technologies design to inject in the stratosphere massive amounts of molecular species, which can act as precursors for aerosol formation able to partially reflect sunlight. SO<sub>2</sub> is one of these species. Since in the atmosphere several natural ionization sources, such as cosmic rays and corona discharge, are active, we have considered that SO<sub>2</sub><sup>+</sup> ions can be formed in the stratosphere in a significant amount after being injected by balloons or aircrafts. The SO<sub>2</sub><sup>+ </sup>chemistry could play a role in the dynamics of aerosol formation as a cooling agent. We have studied theoretically and experimentally the reaction of SO<sub>2</sub><sup>+</sup>, produced by tunable synchrotron radiation, with H<sub>2</sub> leading to HSO<sub>2</sub><sup>+</sup> and H, the latter being involved in the ozone depletion by producing O<sub>2 </sub>and OH. This is an ionic possible alternative to OH formation during the nighttime, when the common sunlight process of OH generation cannot occur. In order to explain the experimental reactivity we propose a new non-thermal version of the Variational Transition State Theory. We provide analytic expressions for the temperature dependent rate coefficients, which should be tested in atmospheric kinetic models to fully explore the stratospheric solar geoengineering strategies.</p>

Abstract. Abstract. Pulsed laser methods for OH generation and detection were used to study atmospheric degradation reactions for three important biogenic gases: OH + isoprene (R1); OH + α-pinene (R2); and OH + Δ-3-carene (R3). Gas-phase rate coefficients were characterised by non-Arrhenius kinetics for all three reactions. For (R1), k1 (241–356 K) = (1.93 ± 0.08) × 10−11 exp (466 ± 12)/T cm3 molecule−1 s−1 was determined, with a room temperature value of k1 (297 K) = (9.3 ± 0.4) × 10−11 cm3 molecule−1 s−1, independent of bath-gas pressure (5–200 Torr) and composition (M = N2 or air). Accuracy and precision were enhanced by online optical monitoring of isoprene, with absolute concentrations obtained via an absorption cross-section, σisoprene = (1.28 ± 0.06) × 10−17 cm2 molecule−1 at λ = 184.95 nm, determined in this work. These results indicate that significant discrepancies between previous absolute and relative rate determinations of k1 result in part from σ values used to derive the isoprene concentration. Similar methods were used to determine rate coefficients (in 10−11 cm3 molecule−1 s−1) for (R2–R3): k2 (238–357 K) = (1.83 ± 0.04) × exp (330 ± 6)/T; and k3 (235–357 K) = (2.48 ± 0.14) × exp (357 ± 17)/T. This is the first temperature-dependent dataset for (R3) and enables the calculation of reliable atmospheric lifetimes with respect to OH removal for e.g. boreal forest springtime conditions. Room temperature values of k2 (296 K) = (5.4 ± 0.2) × 10−11 cm3 molecule−1 s−1 and k3 (297 K) = (8.1 ± 0.3) × 10−11 cm3 molecule−1 s−1 were independent of bath-gas pressure (7–200 Torr, N2 or air), and in good agreement with previously reported values. In the course of this work, 184.95 nm absorption cross-sections were determined: σ = (1.54 ± 0.08) × 10−17cm 2 molecule−1 for α-pinene and (2.40 ± 0.12) × 10−17  cm2 molecule−1 for Δ-3-carene.
