H. Harwood, J. M. Roberts, G. J. Frost, A. R. Ravishankara, J. B. Burkholder Title: Photochemical Studies of CH3C(O)OONO2 (PAN) and CH3CH2C(O)OONO2 (PPN): NO3 Quantum Yields Journal/Source: J. Phys. Chem. A, 107 (8), 1148–1154, (2003); DOI: 10.1021/jp0264230 Data: (diagram, table, disk): Energy/Wavelength range: 248 nm; 308 nm Resolution: Temperature: 298 K Temperature dependence: Pressure: Comments: The authors report room-temperature quantum yield values (NO3) of 0.19 ± 0.04 and 0.41 ± 0.10 at 248 and 308 nm, respectively, for PAN and 0.22 ± 0.04 and 0.39 ± 0.04 at 248 and 308 nm, respectively, for PPN. UV absorption cross sections for PPN between 200 and 340 nm over the temperature range 296-253 K are also reported. Author to whom correspondence should be addressed: (e-mail address):
