Abstract

48

We report chamber measurements of secondary organic aerosol (SOA) formation from

49

isoprene photochemical oxidation, where radical concentrations were systematically varied and

50

the molecular composition of semi to low volatility gases and SOA were measured online. Using

51

a detailed chemical kinetics box model, we find that to explain the behavior of low volatility

52

products and SOA mass yields relative to input H2O2 concentrations, the second generation

53

dihydroxy hydroperoxy peroxy radical (C5H11O6•) must undergo an intra-molecular H-shift with

54

a net forward rate constant of order 0.1 s-1 or higher. This finding is consistent with quantum

55

chemical calculations which suggest a net forward rate constant of 0.3-0.9 s-1. Furthermore, these

56

calculations suggest the dominant product of this isomerization is a dihydroxy hydroperoxy

57

epoxide (C5H10O5) which is expected to have a saturation vapor pressure ~2 orders of magnitude

58

higher, as determined by group-contribution calculations, than the dihydroxy dihydroperoxide,

59

ISOP(OOH)2 (C5H12O6), a major product of the peroxy radical reacting with HO2. These results

60

provide strong constraints on the likely volatility distribution of isoprene oxidation products

61

under atmospheric conditions and thus on the importance of non-reactive gas-particle

62

partitioning of isoprene oxidation products as an SOA source.

63 64 65

1. Introduction Atmospheric submicron aerosol particles impact climate, human health, and visibility.1 A

66

large portion of submicron aerosol mass (~20-90%) is secondary organic aerosol (SOA),2,

67

which arises from chemical processes in the atmosphere that convert volatile organic compounds

68

(VOC) into condensed-phase organic material. A significant fraction of SOA is thought to be

69

formed from biogenic rather than anthropogenic VOC.4,

5

3

The annual emissions of isoprene

70

(C5H8), primarily from deciduous vegetation, represent nearly half the total of all non-methane

71

hydrocarbons.6 Thus, isoprene has the potential to generate large quantities of SOA, even if its

72

overall conversion is inefficient.

73

The formation of SOA from the free radical photochemical oxidation of biogenic VOC

74

(BVOC) is governed in part by the mass concentration (c) weighted volatility distribution of the

75

resulting products. For example, BVOC oxidation products having equilibrium saturation vapor

76

concentrations (c*) lower than ~100 µg m-3 can be expected to partition into an existing organic

77

condensed-phase and thus contribute to SOA, as typical organic aerosol mass concentrations

78

( ) are in the range of 1-10 µg m-3.7, 8 The volatility distribution of BVOC oxidation products

79

is governed by the ratio of the BVOC that undergoes functionalization relative to fragmentation

80

during atmospheric oxidation. Oxidation of BVOC is frequently initiated by the formation of a

81

carbon-centered radical primarily due to reaction with a hydroxyl radical (OH). In this initial

82

stage, atmospheric oxygen (O2) can add to the carbon-centered radical to form an organic peroxy

83

radical (RO2). RO2 can then undergo bimolecular reactions with typically HO2, NO, or RO2. All

84

of these bimolecular reactions can produce more functionalized products, while the latter two can

85

also form alkoxy radicals (RO) which can undergo H-shift isomerization9 or fragment into

86

smaller, more volatile products. Thus, the volatility distribution is largely determined by the fate

87

of RO2 intermediates.

88

In the specific case of isoprene (scheme 1), OH addition to a double bond followed by O2

89

addition yields a hydroxy RO2. Some isomers of the first-generation RO2 can undergo

90

unimolecular isomerization (not shown), with a forward rate constant of order 0.01 - 1 s-1,10-12

91

followed by HO2 loss to produce a hydroperoxyenal (HPALD),10, 11 or dihydroperoxy-carbonyl

92

peroxy radicals (di-HPCARP).12 The net isomerization rate constant weighted by the isomer



12

Page 4 of 30

93

distribution was calculated to be ~0.001 s-1.11,

94

bimolecular reactions with HO2 to form a hydroxy hydroperoxide (ISOPOOH), NO to form an

95

alkyl nitrate,13 or NO or RO2 to form an alkoxy radical. The latter tends to decompose by carbon-

96

carbon bond scission to form products such as formaldehyde, methacrolein, or methyl vinyl

97

ketone.14-17 These first generation closed-shell products are rather volatile, and though they may

98

undergo multiphase reactions, their contribution to SOA by direct partitioning is likely small.

99

Given that a large fraction of isoprene reacts to form ISOPOOH under low NOx conditions,

100

possibly up to or greater than 70%,18 and that it likely has the lowest c* of the first generation

101

products, its oxidation products are the subject of continued focus.

The first generation RO2 can undergo

102

ISOPOOH reacts rapidly via OH addition to the remaining double bond producing a

103

carbon-centered radical often α to the hydroperoxide moiety (Scheme 1). This alkyl radical has

104

been shown to form an epoxide bridge with the hydroperoxide group. Consecutive loss of OH

105

from that hydroperoxide group forms an epoxydiol (IEPOX)18 ~70-80% of the time19 (Scheme

106

1). A significant fraction of isoprene-derived SOA is now understood to originate from acid

107

catalyzed aqueous phase chemistry of IEPOX,18, 20-27 although SOA also forms from isoprene

108

oxidation in the absence of an acidic aqueous phase.28-31 Recent gas-29 and particle-phase30-32

109

composition measurements of low-NOx OH oxidation of both isoprene and ISOPOOH reveal

110

highly oxygenated second generation products. A major particle-phase component has the

111

composition C5H12O6,30-32 likely a dihydroxy dihydroperoxide, which we refer to as

112

ISOP(OOH)2 (see Scheme 2, top reaction, for structure). This product is believed to form from

113

O2 addition to the carbon-centered radical from ISOPOOH + OH to yield a second generation

114

RO2 in competition with IEPOX formation (Scheme 1), followed by reaction of the RO2 with

115

HO2 (Scheme 2, top reaction). A fraction of ISOPOOH + OH is also expected to react via H-


Page 5 of 30


116

abstraction from an alkyl group or the –OOH group, although these channels are relatively small

117

contributions to net ISOPOOH reactivity.19

118

In previous work, we showed that steady-state ISOP(OOH)2 and SOA mass yields

119

increase together as the OH and HO2 source,30 H2O2, is increased relative to isoprene. Reasons

120

for this behavior have yet to be determined. Mechanistic explanations for prominent products

121

from this system other than ISOP(OOH)2, such as C5H12O5 and C5H10O5-7, are also lacking.

122

Herein, we compare an expanded set of chamber experiments with novel predictions from a

123

detailed multiphase chemical model, and quantum chemical calculations of RO2 radical fates, to

124

improve our understanding of the isoprene oxidation mechanism and thus the formation of

125

isoprene SOA from non-IEPOX oxidation products. Specifically, we test different hypotheses for

126

the fate of the C5H11O6• peroxy radical so that we can understand the dependence of non-IEPOX

127

isoprene SOA formation on chamber oxidation conditions. We conclude with a discussion of the

128

atmospheric implications of our findings.

2. Methods

131

2.1 Laboratory Experiments

132

A suite of online instruments were employed to monitor the gas- and particle-phase chemical

133

composition. Ozone (Thermo Environmental Instruments model 49C), NO/NO2/NOx (Thermo

134

Environmental Instruments model 42C), and isoprene (Ionicon proton-transfer-reaction mass

135

spectrometer (PTR-MS)) concentrations were measured in the chamber outflow. Bulk submicron

136

organic and inorganic particle-phase composition and mass loading were measured with an

137

Aerodyne high-resolution time-of-flight aerosol mass spectrometer (HRToF-AMS). A high-

138

resolution time-of-flight chemical ionization mass spectrometer (HRToF-CIMS) with iodide



Page 6 of 30

139

ionization was coupled to a Filter Inlet for Gases and AEROsols (FIGAERO).33 The HRToF-

140

CIMS FIGAERO coupling has been described in detail previously in the configuration used in

141

these experiments.30, 32, 34 Briefly, the FIGAERO is an inlet manifold that allows for sampling

142

gas-phase composition at 1 Hz through an independent inlet while collecting aerosol particles on

143

a Teflon filter through another inlet. Particle-phase composition is assessed at approximately

144

hourly resolution by actuating the filter to be in front of the HRToF-CIMS entrance orifice and

145

performing temperature-programmed thermal desorption of particles. Vaporized particle-phase

146

compounds are then detected by the HRToF-CIMS.

147

Experiments presented here have been discussed previously,32 but the observed

148

relationships of SOA yields to radical sources in these specific experiments have not been

149

presented. In brief, experiments were performed in 2015 in the Pacific Northwest National

150

Laboratory’s 10.6 m3 fluorinated ethylene polypropylene (FEP) environmental chamber, which

151

has been described before.32, 35 The chamber was controlled to a constant 50% relative humidity

152

and operated in continuous-flow mode with a residence time of 5.2 hours where reactants are

153

continuously delivered at a constant flow rate while products are continuously monitored with a

154

suite of gas- and particle-phase instrumentation. OH and HO2 radicals were generated from the

155

photolysis of excess H2O2 (Sigma-Aldrich, 50% in water), with chamber concentrations ranging

156

from 0.1 s-1.

, which is slower than other recent determinations in chambers operated in batch-mode.45-48, 50, 51

290

The important role of isomerization is demonstrated further in Figure 2, where we

291

compare model predicted and observed ISOP(OOH)2 mass yields as a function of H2O2 in the

292

chamber, used as a proxy for [HO2] (Fig. S2). Model runs were conducted at isomerization rate

293

constants, kisom, of 0 (i.e. the base-case), 0.005, 0.3, and 0.8 s-1 and all other parameters the same

294

as the base-case (IEPOX yield of 82%, kwall =10-5 s-1). The runs at the two slowest isomerization

295

rates (0 and 0.005 s-1) are statistically the same and significantly over-predict the ISOP(OOH)2

296

mass yield relative to the measurements by up to a factor of 30. The runs with kisom of 0.3 and 0.8

297

s-1 are both much closer to the data, with the run at kisom = 0.8 s-1 predicting ISOP(OOH)2 mass

298

yields closest to the observations (Fig. 2, inset), and have the approximate linear increase of yield

299

with H2O2. We demonstrate in the SI with a steady-state chemical analysis that the dependence


Page 13 of 30


300

of the ISOP(OOH)2 and SOA mass yields on changing input H2O2 concentrations requires the

301

existence of a pathway such as isomerization that competes with the RO2 + HO2 reaction. Simply

302

increasing kwall or ϕ moves the model curve down, but does not change the shape (Fig. S4), nor

303

does [OH] change enough to explain the observations. We can also rule out significant nitric

304

oxide chemistry using our observations of organic nitrates (and NOx).32 Increasing the RO2 +

305

RO2 reaction rate constant to the kinetic limit also did not improve the agreement. Thus, we

306

conclude that isomerization of the C5H11O6• peroxy radical competes with the reaction of

307

C5H11O6• with HO2 and thereby causes the observed trend with H2O2 concentration.

308

While Crounse et al.11 reported experimentally measured net isomer-weighted

309

isomerization rate of the first generation isoprene hydroxy peroxy radical, C5H9O3 (ISOPO2), of

310

order 0.001 s-1, we note specific isomers had larger isomerization rates,73 and other studies have

311

found the H-shift kisom of methacrolein and a peroxy radical of -OOH substituted 3-pentanone to

312

be 0.5 s-1 74 and >0.1 s-1,73 respectively. Computational studies have also calculated rates similar

313

to these for peroxy radical hydrogen shift reactions.54, 75 Thus, the kisom required for agreement

314

with the observations we present is consistent with kisom for other peroxy radicals.

315

Our independently performed quantum chemical calculations examined the isomerization

316

rate of C5H11O6• and possible products for the two most prominent ISOPOOH isomers, 1,2-

317

ISOPOOH (shown in Scheme 1) and 3,4-ISOPOOH. In Scheme 3, we show the C5H11O6•

318

isomers formed from 1,2-ISOPOOH, however, the same is obtained for 3,4-ISOPOOH due to the

319

rapid interconversion between the two peroxy radicals, which has also been previously

320

demonstrated for another hydroperoxy-peroxy system.76 The forward rates of the 1,5 H-shift

321

reactions were found to be 0.3 s-1 and 0.9 s-1 for the two isomers, respectively (Scheme 3). The

322

reverse rates in both cases were too slow at room temperature to compete with epoxide formation



Page 14 of 30

323

or the addition of O2 to the resulting alkyl radical, which presumably occurs near the kinetic limit

324

(~108 s-1 at 1 atm total pressure) as previously shown.77 Thus, the ISOPOOH-derived RO2 will

325

convert into other products due to intramolecular H-shifts at a net forward rate of order 0.3 s-1 or

326

faster according to the quantum chemical calculations, consistent with the observations and box

327

modeling described above. The fact that the box model and quantum chemical calculations

328

independently arrive at a similar value for the rate of C5H11O6• isomerization supports the

329

hypothesis that such a pathway competes with HO2, not only in the chamber, but also the

330

atmosphere where HO2 concentrations are significantly lower.

331

For isomerization of the ISOPOOH-derived RO2 to explain a decreasing SOA mass yield,

332

the products that result from the isomerization must be of higher volatility than ISOP(OOH)2.

333

The quantum chemical calculations predict three possible products: a hydroxy dihydroperoxy

334

aldehyde or ketone (C5H10O6 or C5H10O7, respectively) and a dihydroxy hydroperoxy epoxide

335

(C5H10O5), (Schemes 2 and 3). Additionally, C5H10O5 could be a dihydroxy hydroperoxy

336

aldehyde formed from addition of OH to the internal carbon of the remaining ISOPOOH double

337

bond (Scheme S1). Previous studies suggest branching to this pathway is a few percent,13, 78, 79

338

and so was not included. As it is also a product of isomerization, it does not affect our

339

determination of kisom or conclusions (see SI). The calculations suggest that formation of the

340

epoxide, analogous mechanistically to the formation of IEPOX,18 is one to two orders of

341

magnitude faster than O2 addition to form the aldehyde/ketone, where O2 addition occurs at a

342

rate of ~107 s-1 for both 1,2- and 3,4-ISOPOOH and epoxide formation occurs at calculated rates

343

of 9 × 109 or 3 × 108 s-1 for 1,2- and 3,4-ISOPOOH, respectively. That an epoxide is formed is

344

intriguing, suggesting that epoxide formation may be a more general characteristic of isoprene

345

oxidation rather than specific to IEPOX, and that epoxide formation when a hydroperoxide is α


Page 15 of 30


346

to a carbon-centered radical is more common than our current mechanisms of VOC oxidation

347

suggests.

348

Although the FIGAERO HRToF-CIMS does not provide structural information, we can

349

assess whether the products of C5H11O6• peroxy radical isomerization are consistent with the

350

observed compositions of measured oxidation products. Figure 3 shows the behavior of the sum

351

of isomerization products relative to the HO2 bimolecular reaction product, where we assume

352

ions with the compositions C5H10O5, C5H10O6, and C5H10O7 correspond to the predicted epoxide,

353

aldehyde, and ketone products, respectively. The model predicts the relative shape of the

354

relationship with respect to H2O2 correctly, but the absolute agreement in the ratio of these

355

products is better for kisom of ~0.1 s-1, as opposed to the 0.3 – 0.8 s-1 suggested by the comparison

356

to the concentration of ISOP(OOH)2. Uncertainties in the relative loss rates assumed in the

357

model and in the relative instrument response to these various products likely explain such

358

discrepancies. The results shown in Figures 2 and 3, combined with the quantum calculations, all

359

point to a kisom of 0.1-0.8 s-1. That independent approaches all arrive at kisom > 0.1 s-1 therefore

360

has important implications for SOA formation from isoprene in the atmosphere.

361

The SOA mass concentration and the distribution of compounds in the particle-phase

362

provide an additional test of the model. Figure 4, top, shows that a C5H11O6• kisom of 0.3 s-1

363

provides good model/measurement agreement of the SOA abundance (R2=0.98). The base-case

364

model over-predicts SOA, while kisom of 0.8 s-1 slightly under-predicts SOA. Consistent with the

365

observations, the modeled SOA contains 36% ISOP(OOH)2 (Fig. 4, bottom), with other major

366

components matching compositions of major components measured by the FIGAERO HRToF-

367

CIMS. The model predicts that the dihydroxy hydroperoxy epoxide formed from C5H11O6•



Page 16 of 30

368

isomerization makes up 48% of the aerosol composition at the highest HO2 concentration and

369

kisom of 0.8 s-1, while it was observed to be 11%.

370

We do not expect perfect agreement between measured and modeled SOA abundance and

371

composition, in part because previous studies have shown that up to 50% of this non-IEPOX

372

SOA is possibly low volatility accretion-like products32 likely formed from multiphase chemistry

373

which is not included in the model. Thus, we expect to under-predict measured SOA by as much

374

as a factor of two with F0AM, as well as to be unable to simulate observed products which are

375

the result of thermal decomposition of low volatility oligomers during the desorption analysis.

376

As such, we conclude that the overall agreement with observations in the predicted SOA mass

377

abundance, dominant products, and response to changing H2O2 is reasonable, and that

378

constraining kisom for the C5H11O6• peroxy radical at >0.1 s-1 is more important than kwall for

379

predicting the SOA yield.

380 381

4. Atmospheric Implications

382

We utilize quantum chemical calculations and a detailed chemical kinetics box model

383

compared to measurements of gas- and particle-phase oxidation products of isoprene made in an

384

environmental chamber. To explain the responses of product distributions and SOA mass

385

concentrations to changes in chamber radical conditions, the C5H11O6• peroxy radical formed

386

from ISOPOOH + OH must undergo intra-molecular H-atom shift reactions (“RO2

387

isomerization”) at rates exceeding 0.1 s-1 to form products 1-2 orders of magnitude higher

388

volatility than that of ISOP(OOH)2, which forms if the peroxy radical reacts with HO2. Such a

389

pathway has significant implications for how low-NO chamber studies should be conducted, and


Page 17 of 30


390

offers a way to reconcile differences in SOA yields measured under different chamber

391

conditions.28-31

392

While ISOP(OOH)2 and related highly oxygenated C5 compounds believed to come from the

393

ISOP(OOH)2 pathway, have been observed in the Southeastern U.S. atmosphere during the

394

SOAS 2013 field campaign, their abundance was only a few percent of the total SOA in an

395

isoprene dominated region.31 Using SOAS diurnally averaged measurements of HO2 and NO,

396

and our F0AM model presented here, we calculate the vast majority, >96%, of the C5H11O6• will

397

undergo isomerization instead of forming the lowest volatility ISOP(OOH)2 and related products.

398

The quantum calculations suggest the most likely product of the isomerization is a dihydroxy

399

hydroperoxy epoxide. While we and others observe a major second generation product with the

400

composition (C5H10O5) of such an epoxide,29 confirmation of the structure remains necessary.

401

Epoxides in general undergo heterogeneous uptake and acid catalyzed ring opening with the

402

potential to form SOA through subsequent substitution reactions.27, 80, 81 However, we speculate

403

that the dominant fate in aqueous acidic particles of this specific epoxide moiety will be nearly

404

instantaneous conversion to a dihydroxy hydroperoxy carbonyl, but direct experimental evidence

405

is needed. That said, its lower volatility relative to IEPOX will allow it to partition more strongly

406

to an organic phase where it may undergo accretion chemistry.

407

The dominance of epoxide formation over O2 addition to a carbon radical α to a

408

hydroperoxyl group, as calculated herein and for the case of IEPOX, suggests gas-phase epoxide

409

formation may be more common than current atmospheric chemistry mechanisms allow. Such a

410

situation would have implications for the propensity of acidity enhanced SOA formation from a

411

variety of biogenic and anthropogenic VOC.20,

412

autoxidation, where peroxy radicals form multiple hydroperoxide moieties by several intra-

26, 27, 81

For example, the peroxy radical



Page 18 of 30

413

molecular H-shifts could well terminate to epoxides. Epoxide formation has been commonly

414

suggested, particularly for aromatic systems,82-88 supporting the idea that epoxides are potentially

415

a feature of low NOx oxidation of non-aromatics when a radical center occurs α to a hydroperoxy

416

group. Moreover, there is also recent evidence for epoxide formation from –ONO2 groups α to

417

the carbon radical.19, 89, 90 Thus, we suggest analytical methods specific to epoxides be developed

418

for assessing their ubiquity in the atmosphere and chamber studies.
