Cycloalkyl nitrates

Signicant new information related to the photodecomposition of some bifiinctional alkyl nitrates has been reported. In addition to absorption spectra of many alkyl nitrates, Roberts and Fajer (1989) also measured the spectra for the bifiinctional 2-nitrooxyethanol. Bames et al. (1993) studied the absorption spectra and photolysis products of several dinitrates 1,2-propandiol dinitrate, 1,2-butandiol dinitrate, 2,3-butandiol dinitrate, l,4-dinitrooxy-2-butene, 3,4-dinitrooxy-l-butene, as well as several bifiinctional nitrates a-nitrooxyacetone, l-nitrooxy-2-butanone, and 3-nitrooxy-2-butanone. Wangberg et al. (1996) reported on the the atmospheric chemistry of the bifiinctional cycloalkyl nitrates 2-hydroxy-cyclopentyl-l-nitrate, 2-oxo-cyclohexyl-1-nitrate, and frans -l-methyl-cycto-l,2-dinitrate. In this section, we will review the findings related to the tropospheric photodecomposition of these multifunctional nitrates.
