<div> <p>The extraction of the succinate dianion from a neutral aqueous solution into dichloromethane is obtained using a lipophilic cage-like dicopper(II) complex as the extractant. The quantitative extraction exploits the high affinity of the succinate anion for the cavity of the azacryptate. The anion is effectively transferred from the aqueous phase, buffered at pH 7 with HEPES, into dichloromethane. A 1:1 extractant:anion adduct is obtained. Extraction can be easily monitored by following changes in the UV-visible spectrum of the dicopper complex in dichloromethane, and by measuring the residual concentration of succinate in the aqueous phase by HPLC−UV.

Abstract. A new modelling study of the role of transition metal ions on cloud chemistry has been performed. Developments of the Model of Multiphase Cloud Chemistry (M2C2; Leriche et al., 2001) are described, including the transition metal ions reactivity emission/deposition processes and variable photolysis in the aqueous phase. The model is then applied to three summertime scenarios under urban, remote and marine conditions, described by Ervens et al. (2003). Chemical regimes in clouds are analyzed to understand the role of transition metal ions on cloud chemistry and especially, on HxOy chemistry, which consequently influences the sulphur and the VOCs chemistry in droplets. The ratio of Fe(II)/Fe(III) exhibits a diurnal variation with values in agreement with the available measurements of Fe speciation. In the urban case, sensitivity tests with and without TMI chemistry, show an enhancement of OH concentration in the aqueous phase when TMI chemistry is considered.

Abstract. It is now accepted that one of the important pathways of Secondary Organic Aerosol (SOA) formation occurs through aqueous phase chemistry in the atmosphere. However, the liquid phase chemical mechanisms leading to macromolecules are still not well understood. For α-dicarbonyl precursors, such as methylglyoxal and glyoxal, radical reactions through OH-oxidation produce oligomers, irreversibly and faster than accretion reactions. Methyl vinyl ketone (MVK) was chosen in the present study as it is an α, β-unsaturated carbonyl that can undergo such reaction pathways in the aqueous phase and forms even high molecular weight oligomers. We present here experiments on the aqueous phase OH-oxidation of MVK, performed under atmospheric relevant conditions. Using NMR and UV absorption spectroscopy, high and ultra-high resolution mass spectrometry, we show that the fast formation of oligomers up to 1800 Da is due to radical oligomerization of MVK, and 13 series of oligomers (out of a total of 26 series) are identified. The influence of atmospherically relevant parameters such as temperature, initial concentrations of MVK and dissolved oxygen are presented and discussed. In agreement with the experimental observations, we propose a chemical mechanism of OH-oxidation of MVK in the aqueous phase that proceeds via radical oligomerization of MVK on the olefin part of the molecule. This mechanism highlights the paradoxical role of dissolved O2: while it inhibits oligomerization reactions, it contributes to produce oligomerization initiator radicals, which rapidly consume O2, thus leading to the supremacy of oligomerization reactions after several minutes of reaction. These processes, together with the large ranges of initial concentrations investigated (60–656 μM of dissolved O2 and 0.2–20 mM of MVK) show the fundamental role that O2 likely plays in atmospheric organic aerosol.
