Abstract
Reaction of ozone with three kinds of olefins in air was studied. H2O2 , CH3OOH, and HOCH2OOH were collected and analyzed with HPLC with a fl uorometric detector. Direct reaction of CH2OO with H2O was found to be the source of HOCH2OOH. CH3OOH was formed only from the olefins which have a methyl group. Detailed reaction mechanisms are discussed.
