<p>The biogenic oxygenated volatile compound 2-methylbutanal (2MB) is emitted into the low atmosphere from several natural sources such as microbiological processes, wildland fires, or emissions from vegetation<sup>1</sup>. Moreover, some industrial operations also generate 2MB<sup>2</sup>. During the day, the oxidation of 2MB can be initiated by sunlight, hydroxyl (OH) radicals or chlorine (Cl) atoms in marine atmospheres. Up to date, gas-phase kinetics of OH with 2MB has only been studied at room temperature<sup>3</sup>. The photolysis rate coefficients (<em>J</em>) of 2MB initiated by sunlight have also been reported<sup>4</sup>. However, there is no available data for the reaction of Cl atoms with 2MB and the photolysis products.</p><p>In this work, the photolysis rate coefficient (<em>J</em>) of 2MB has been measured using a solar simulator in a Pyrex cell coupled to a Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectrometer to monitor the loss of 2MB. Moreover, the gas-phase kinetics of the reaction of 2MB with Cl (<em>k</em><sub>Cl</sub>) and OH (<em>k</em><sub>OH</sub>) have been investigated to evaluate the contribution of these homogeneous degradation routes to the total loss of 2MB in the atmosphere. All the kinetic experiments were carried out under free-NO<sub>x</sub> conditions (simulating a clean atmosphere). Regarding the relative kinetic study on the Cl-reaction, an atmospheric simulation chamber coupled to a FTIR spectrometer was used at 298 K and 760 Torr <sup>5</sup> of air, whereas for the absolute kinetics of the OH-reaction, <em>k</em><sub>OH</sub> was determined as a function of temperature and pressure (T = 263-353 K and P = 50-600 Torr of helium) by using a pulsed laser photolysis-laser induced fluorescence system<sup>6</sup>. Finally, in addition to FTIR, gas chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry and proton transfer time-of-flight mass spectrometry were used to detect the gas-phase reaction products when 2MB was exposed to Cl and sunlight. The atmospheric implications will be discussed in terms of lifetimes and reactions products.</p><p><strong>REFERENCES:</strong> <strong>1</strong>.

Fluorinated hydrocarbon radical-radical reactions in the gas phase have been studied at low pressure (0.5 ≤ p/mbar ≤ 2) and low temperature (253 ≤ T/K ≤ 333) using the discharge flow reactor molecular beam sampling mass spectrometry (MS) technique. Stable and labile species have been detected by MS applying low energy electron impact as well as multiphoton ionisation.For the combination reactionCHthe rate coefficient kCHis the main channel (k(1b)/kFor the CHFCHFthe rate coefficient was measured as kNo pressure dependence of k
