The Mechanisms of Atmospheric Oxidation of the Aromatic Hydrocarbons

By Jack G. Calvert, Roger Atkinson, Karl H. Becker

This text reviews many of the aspects of the chemistry of the aromatic hydrocarbons and a consensus evaluation of the data by seven of the leading atmospheric scientists. The book covers topics ranging from the relative importance of the compounds in ozone and haze development to methods of
estimating elemantary rate coefficients based on structural features of the compounds to mechanisms of aerosol generation and atmostpheric reaction of the polycyclic compounds to photochemical processes. It identifies features of the aromatic hydrocarbons requiring further study and appendicies give
the structural formulas and nomenclature of the compounds reviewed in the book.
