Abstract A mechanism for ozone–olefin reactions is developed that is consistent with the recent findings of several investigations. These findings suggest a reaction sequence leading to the production of fewer free radical species than has been assumed in the past. Computer simulations using the new mechanism reproduce experimental results obtained from the ozonolysis of propylene in air.
