Question

2-butanol + NOx + hv (assume the carbon-hydrogen bond on the carbon adjacent to the carbon
with the alcohol group is the weakest)

For each mechanism, provide the photolytic cycle, a source for hydroxyl radical (if needed) AND a
termination step. You may stop when you have accounted for all radicals AND all VOCs are stable (i.e., if
formaldehyde is a product of your mechanism, you do not have to oxidize that molecule to).
