STRAZDAITE, J. CEPONKUS and V. SABLINSKAS 2 Why should we care about the ozonides? Ozonides are considered to participate in forming of aerosols and smog through chemical reactions. Despite of numerous studies of the reaction by different spectroscopic techniques the precise mechanism of the reaction is still unknown. Final fate of the ozonization reaction depends on many parameters such as type and conformation of the radical. Unfortunately its not much known about spatial structures of ozonides. 3 The aim of this study To define the geometrical structures and stability of the different conformers of the 1-butene and 1-heptene secondary ozonides by combined analysis of the matrix isolation FTIR spectral data with the results of Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations 4 Is amount of unsaturated hydrocarbons in troposphere significant? Alkenes are reactive hydrocarbons emitted from plants and during combustion Annual global emissions by plants 1250 10 6 t/year Guenther et al. (2006) Similar figures are for hydrocarbon release due to combustion 5 Criegee mechanism breaking double bond Unstable product Primary Ozonide More stable product Secondary Ozonide R.

Gaseous 1-butene SOZ at 300 K exists as mixture of four conformers while 1-heptene SOZ as mixture of three conformers. 22 Vilnius University Faculty of Physics, Dept. of General Physics and Spectroscopy CONFORMATIONAL ANALYSIS OF 1-ALKENE SECONDARY OZONIDES BY MEANS OF MATRIX ISOLATION FTIR SPECTROSCOPY S.
