Short summary
Short summary
2,4‑Dinitrophenol, an air pollutant, reacts mainly with hydroxyl radicals and ozone. Water and its nitro groups slow the reactions. A key radical intermediate reacts with oxygen and nitrogen dioxide. Adsorption onto aerosol particles changes non‑monotonically with water content. Ozonolysis does not detoxify the pollutant but instead increases its mutagenicity and developmental toxicity. Therefore, transformation products must be included in environmental risk assessments.

Short summary
Short summary
Our field campaigns observed a strong diel pattern of chloroacetic acid as well as a strong correlation between its level and that of reactive chlorine species at a coastal site. Using quantum chemical calculations and box model simulation with an updated Master Chemical Mechanism, we found that the formation pathway of chloroacetic acid involved multiphase processes. Our study enhances understanding of atmospheric organic chlorine chemistry and emphasizes the importance of multiphase reactions.

Short summary
This work found that the air–water (A–W) interface and TiO2 clusters promote the oxidation of phenolic compounds (PhCs) to varying degrees compared with the gas phase and bulk water. Some byproducts are more harmful than their parent compounds. This work provides important evidence for the rapid oxidation observed in O3/HO• + PhC experiments at the A–W interface and in mineral dust.
