Heterogeneous reactivity of pyrene and 1-nitropyrene with NO2: Kinetics, product yields and mechanism
AbstractThe heterogeneous reactivity of nitrogen dioxide with pyrene and 1-nitropyrene (1NP) adsorbed on silica particles has been investigated using a fast-flow-tube in the absence of light. Reactants and products were extracted from particles using pressurised fluid extraction (PFE) and concentration measurements were performed using gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS). The pseudo-first order rate constants were obtained from the fit of the experimental decay of particulate polycyclic compound concentrations versus reaction time. Experiments were performed at three different NO2 concentrations and second order rate constants were calculated considering the oxidant concentration. The following rate constant values were obtained at room temperature: k(NO2+pyrene)=(9.3±2.3)×10−17cm3 molecule−1 s−1 and k(NO2+1NP)=(6.2±1.5)×10−18cm3 molecule−1 s−1, showing that the reactivity of 1NP was slower by a factor of 15 than that of pyrene. 1NP was identified as the only NO2-initiated oxidation product of pyrene and all the three dinitropyrenes were identified in the case of the 1NP reaction. The product quantification allowed showing that the kinetics of oxidation product formation was equal to that measured for parent compounds degradation, within uncertainties, confirming the validity of the reaction kinetics measurements.
