Title:
Kinetics and mechanisms of the gas-phase reactions of the hydroxyl radical with organic compounds under atmospheric conditions.
Author:
Atkinson R
Year:
1985
Bibliographic source:
Chem. Rev. 85, 69-201

Materials and methods

Principles of method if other than guideline:
Measured data from author and other investigators were quality assessed and then used to develop rate constants for different chemicals. The author applied a least squares analysis of degradation rate constants for organic chemicals by hydroxyl radicals developed by other investigators.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Validity criteria fulfilled:
not applicable
Remarks:
Review article
Conclusions:
The half-life of but-1-ene is 0.5 days
Executive summary:

The half-life of but-1-ene is 0.5days. Measured data from author and other investigators were quality assessed and then used to develop rate constants for different chemicals. Therefore, this value represents a valid rate constant for but-1-ene based on all valid studies at the time of publication.
