The kinetics of the gas-phase reactions of 1,4-benzodioxan, 2,3-dihydrobenzofuran, and 2,3-benzofuran with OH radicals and O₃ have been studied at 298 ± 2 K and atmospheric pressure of air and the products have also been investigated. 1,4-Benzodioxan and 2,3-dihydrobenzofuran were chosen as volatile model compounds for dibenzo-p-dioxin and dibenzofuran, respectively. The rate constants, or upper limits thereof, for the O₃ reactions were (in cm³ molecule^?1 s^?1 units): 1,4-benzodioxan, <1.2 × 10^?20; 2,3-dihydrobenzofuran, <1 × 10^?19; and 2,3-benzofuran, (1.83 ± 0.21) × 10^?18. Using a relative rate method, the rate constants for the OH radical reactions (in cm³ molecule^?1 s^?1 units) were: 1,4-dibenzodioxan, (2.52 ± 0.38) × 10^?11; 2,3-dihydrobenzofuran, (3.66 ± 0.56) × 10^?11; and 2,3-benzofuran, (3.73 ± 0.74) × 10^?11. Salicylaldehyde was observed as a product of the OH radical-initiated and O₃ reactions of 2,3-benzofuran, with measured formation yields of 0.26 ± 0.05 and 0.13 ± 0.07, respectively.
