“…Photolytic loss of the esters will be negligible since they are photolytically stable in the actinic region of the electromagnetic spectrum [28]. However, aldehydes absorb actinic radiation in the range 270-340 nm and thus the estimates of the degradation under atmospheric conditions must include the photolysis contribution [29,30].…”

“…The available kinetic data shows that the reaction with OH radicals is the dominant degradation process of unsaturated esters in the atmosphere with lifetimes of a few hours. 24 However, the reaction with ozone can constitute an important sink for these compounds in some areas (such as the highly polluted urban areas where these esters might be present) where the average concentration of ozone could be much higher than 50 ppb used to estimate the lifetimes here). The short atmospheric lifetimes indicate that these compounds will be oxidized near their emission sources.…”

“…Moreover, in continental regions where large amounts of reactive chlorine compounds were found in the lowest part of the atmosphere, [12,13] reaction with Cl atoms may be a more important removal pathway than previously thought. To date, relatively few studies [14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21] have been carried out on the temperature dependence of the reaction of OH with esters.…”
