Abstract
In this Letter, we studied the mechanism for the OH-initiated atmospheric photooxidation of naphthalene in the presence of O2 and NOx, using high-level molecular orbital theory. The profile of the potential energy surface was constructed, and all of the possible product channels were discussed. The theoretical results were compared with the experimental observation. The possible secondary reactions were also studied. The formation mechanism of secondary pollutants from the OH-initiated reaction was also revealed.
