General description

2-Methyl-3-buten-2-ol is the predominant oxygenated volatile organic compound (OVOC) produced by the pine species such as ponderosa pine.[1] It makes a significant contribution to the reactive carbon in the atmosphere of forests dominated by pine species.[2]

Quantum mechanical calculations were used to determine the structure and energetics of peroxy radicals (P1 and P2) and alkoxy radicals (A1-A3) formed in the atmospheric degradation of 2-methyl-3-buten-2-ol. At the level of theory employed (B3LYP/6-31G(d,p)) low energy conformers were identified

2-Methyl-3-buten-2-ol (MBO) is an important biogenic hydrocarbon emitted in large quantities by pine forests. Atmospheric photooxidation of MBO is known to lead to oxygenated compounds, such as glycolaldehyde, which is the precursor to glyoxal. Recent studies have shown that the
