Abstract
He photochemical reactions between 1-naphthol (1-NP) and superoxide anion radical (O2•−) were investigated in detail by using 365 nm UV irradiation. The results showed that the conversion rate of 1-naphthol decreased with the increase of the initial concentration of 1-naphthol, while the raising pH and riboflavin concentration accelerated the photochemical reaction. The second-order reaction rate constant was estimated to be (3.64 ± 0.17) × 108 L mol−1 s−1. The major photolysis products identified by using gas chromatography-mass spectrum (GC-MS) were 1, 4-naphquinone and 2, 3-epoxyresin-2, 3-dihydro-1, 4-naphquinone, and their reaction pathways were also discussed. An atmospheric model showed that both bulk water reaction and heterogeneous surface reaction deserved attentions in atmospheric aqueous chemistry.Keywords
