Hydroxy nitrate production in the OH-initiated oxidation of alkenes

Alkenes are oxidized rapidly in the atmosphere by addition of OH and subsequently O<sub>2</sub> leading to the formation of β-hydroxy peroxy radicals. These peroxy radicals react with NO to form β-hydroxy nitrates with a branching ratio α. We quantify α for C<sub>2</sub>–C<...
