Abstract An experimental protocol for the determination at room temperature of rate constants for the reactions of hydroxyl radicals with organic chemicals in the gas phase is described in detail. This protocol provides a basis for evaluating the reactivity of organic substances which are emitted into the environment and which are consumed primarily by reaction with hydroxyl radicals. The experimental technique is based upon monitoring the disappearance rates of the test compound and of a reference organic in irradiated methyl nitrite-NO-organic-air mixtures.
