The Reaction Between Malonic Acid And The Nitrate Radical As An Example For Compound Processing In Clouds

  • Conference paper
Simulation and Assessment of Chemical Processes in a Multiphase Environment

Using laser photolysis experiments, the reactivity of the nitrate radical towards malonic acid was studied. All kinetics measurements were done as a function of the temperature. The reaction mechanism and its possible atmospheric implication are briefly discussed.
