Quantum chemical study on the atmospheric photooxidation of ethyl acetate
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The mechanism for OH radical initiated atmospheric photoxidation reaction of ethyl acetate was carried out by using the density functional theory method. Geometries have been optimized at the B3LYP level with a standard 6-31G(d,p) basis set. The single-point energy calculations have been performed at the MP2/6-31G(d), MP2/6-311++G(d,p), and CCSD(T)/6-31G(d) levels, respectively. All of the possible degradation channels involved in the oxidation of ethyl acetate by OH radicals have been presented and discussed. Among the five possible hydrogen abstraction pathways of the reaction of ethyl acetate with OH radicals, the hydrogen abstractions from the C1–H3 and C2–H5 bonds are the dominant reaction pathways due to the low potential barriers and strong exothermicity. The β-ester rearrangement of IM6 is energetically favorable but is not expected to be important. The α-ester rearrangement reaction and O2 direct abstraction from IM17 are the more favorable pathways and are strongly competitive. In addition, the α-ester rearrangement reaction is confirmed to be a one-step process. Acetic acid, formic acetic anhydride, acetoxyacetaldehyde, and acetic anhydride are the main products for the reaction of ethyl acetate with OH radicals.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
