The development of several unique strategies and tactics for the synthesis of α-pinene isotopologues that has culminated in access to all eight possible isomers with deuterium incorporated selectively at each available carbon atom is described. Access to this library of isotopologues provides new tools to more fully investigate the atmospheric autoxidation of α-pinene, a complex process that plays a major role in the formation of secondary organic aerosol in the Earth's atmosphere.
本文描述了几种独特的策略和方法用于合成α-蒎烯同位素异构体,最终成功获得了所有八种可能的异构体,其中氘选择性地掺入到每个可利用的碳原子上。获得这个同位素异构体库为更全面地研究α-蒎烯的大气自氧化提供了新工具,α-蒎烯的大气自氧化是一个复杂过程,在地球大气中二次有机气溶胶的形成中起主要作用。
