General description

Secondary organic aerosol (SOA) formation from 2-methyl-3-buten-2-ol (MBO) photooxidation was investigated.

Application

  • Semiochemical emission by fungal symbionts: The study explored how linoleic acid stimulates the emission of bark beetle semiochemicals, including compounds like 2-Methyl-3-buten-1-ol, by fungal symbionts, offering insights into ecological interactions and potential applications in pest management (Unelius et al., 2023).

Secondary organic aerosol (SOA) formation from 2-methyl-3-buten-2-ol (MBO) photooxidation has recently been observed in both field and laboratory studies. Similar to the level of isoprene, the level of MBO-derived SOA increases with elevated aerosol acidity in the absence of nitric

Methacryloyl peroxynitrate (MPAN), the acyl peroxynitrate of methacrolein, has been suggested to be an important secondary organic aerosol (SOA) precursor from isoprene oxidation. Yet, the mechanism by which MPAN produces SOA through reaction with the hydroxyl radical (OH) is unclear.
