AB: Isoprene nitrates are produced from the reaction of isoprene, the dominant biogenic volatile organic compound emission, with NO in the atmosphere. Determining the identity and yields for the 8 isomers is important, as the reactivity and thus fate of the individual nitrates is expected to vary widely. Here we report on smog chamber studies of the yields and fate of each of the isoprene nitrate isomers.
