Short summary
Short summary
This study reveals that amine ozonation products sustain sulfate formation and new particle growth. OH-amines are more efficient than CHO-amines, though both pathways can compete with •OH oxidation. Several products achieve cluster formation rates comparable to their parent amines, indicating that ozonation does not terminate amine-driven nucleation. The distinct temperature and humidity responses among derivatives suggest that aerosol models should adopt species-specific parameterization.

Short summary
Recent studies have shown that atmospheric oxidation of alkenes is a major source of organic acids. Using quantum-chemical calculations and photochemical box model simulation with an updated Master Chemical Mechanism, we found that the formation pathway of acetic acid from the 2-butene + OH reaction involves NO-mediated multi-generation oxidation processes. Our findings enhance the understanding of organic acid formation and highlight the pivotal role of NO in polluted urban atmospheres.

The formation mechanisms for secondary brown carbon (SBrC) contributed by multifunctional reduced nitrogen compounds (RNCs) remain unclear. Hence, from combined laboratory experiments and quantum chemical calculations, we investigated the heterogeneous reactions of glyoxal (GL) with multifunctional RNCs, which are driven by four-step indirect nucleophilic addition reactions. Our results show a possible missing source for SBrC formation on urban, regional, and global scales.

We studied reactions of secondary ozonides (SOZs) with amines. SOZs formed from ozonolysis of β-caryophyllene and α-humulene are found to be reactive to ethylamine and methylamine. Products from SOZs with various conformations reacting with the same amine had different functional groups. Our findings indicate that interaction of SOZs with amines in the atmosphere is very complicated, which is potentially a hitherto unrecognized source of N-containing compound formation.

The formation mechanisms of secondary organic aerosol and brown carbon from small α-carbonyls are still unclear. Thus, the mechanisms and kinetics of aqueous-phase reactions of glyoxal were investigated using quantum chemical and kinetic rate calculations. Several essential isomeric processes were identified, including protonation to yield diol/tetrol and carbenium ions as well as nucleophilic addition of carbenium ions to diol/tetrol and free methylamine/ammonia.

Short summary
Severe regional haze events, which are characterized by exceedingly high levels of fine particulate matter (PM), occur frequently in many developing countries (such as China and India), with profound implications for human health, weather, and climate. Our work establishes a synthetic view for the dominant regional features during severe haze events, unraveling rapid in situ PM production and inefficient transport, both of which are amplified by atmospheric stagnation.

Short summary
This study reveals heterogeneous oxidation causes further radiative forcing effect (RFE) enhancement of amine–mineral mixed particles. Note that RFE increment is higher under clean conditions than that under polluted conditions, which is contributed to high-oxygen-content products. The enhanced RFE of amine–mineral particles caused by heterogenous oxidation is expected to alleviate warming effects.
