Hydrocarbons in photochemical smog

Olefins. Olefins are the most reactive class of hydrocarbons in photochemical smog and have been studied extensively (I, 17, 18, 19). In general, as was perhaps first noted by Schuck and Doyle (20), the mechanism for olefin decomposition apparently involves electrophilic attack (by atomic oxygen, ozone, and other species) on the double bond. Thus, for most of the chemical reactions related to smog formation, olefin reactivity generally increases with additional alkyl (or other electron-donating) groups attached to the two carbon atoms joined by the double bond. [Pg.113]
