Popis: The selected acyclic halogenated monoterpenes derived from red macroalgae are investigated in terms of their isolation, their reactions with oxidants (ozone, OH radical) and the impacts of the first-generation oxidation products on the atmosphere. The yields of these monoterpenes from marine algae are small and highly variable (0.01-6.7%), the fractions can then enter the atmosphere through different meteorologically driven processes. The loss of the monoterpenes is mostly driven by OH radical, however, 1,6-dibromo-2,7-dichloro-3,7-dimethyl-oct-3-ene and 4-bromo-8-chloro-3,7-dimethyl-octa-2,6-dienal undergo significant loss via reaction with ozone (>50%). The atmospheric lifetimes of the compounds investigated range from ca. 1.5-10 hours. Given their short lifetimes, these compounds can be rapidly oxidized to form a range of stable compounds. The investigation of first-generation products from the OH-initiated oxidation of 5,6-dichloro-2-dichloromethyl-6-methyl-octa-1,3,7-triene, 1,6-dibromo-2,7-dichloro-3,7-dimethyl-oct-3-ene and 4-bromo-8-chloro-3,7-dimethyl-octa-2,6-dienal showed the formation of stable organic hydroperoxides, alcohols and carbonyl compounds which can have significant impact on cloud condensation nuclei as contributors of secondary organic aerosols. Release of free halogen can occur from subsequent product oxidation, notably photolysis of carbonyl type species and these are briefly considered.
