Abstract

Read online

Methacrolein oxide (MACRO) is an important carbonyl oxide produced in the atmospheric ozonolysis of isoprene, but its formation is still not fully described. Here, the authors characterize the source reaction of MACRO via infrared spectroscopy and report spectra of anti-trans-MACRO as well as its associated precursor and adduct radicals.
