Rate constants for ozone–alkene reactions under atmospheric conditions

Abstract
By measuring the rates of decay of ozone in a large excess of reactant, second‐order rate constants have been obtained for the reactions of ozone with ethene, propene, but‐1‐ene, trans‐but‐2‐ene, isobutene, hex‐1‐ene, cyclopentene, cyclohexene, isoprene, vinyl fluoride, 1,1‐difluoroethene, cis‐1,2‐difluoroethene, trans‐1,2‐difluoroethene, trifluoroethene, tetrafluoroethene, and 2,5dihydrofuran. The reactions have been studied in synthetic air at atmospheric pressure and at temperatures of 294 and 260 K. The rate constants and Arrhenius parameters are discussed in relation to existing kinetic data on ozone–alkene reactions.
