Strategies and Tactics\nfor Site Specific Deuterium\nIncorporation at Each Available Carbon Atom of α‑Pinene

The development of several unique strategies and tactics\nfor the\nsynthesis of α-pinene isotopologues that has culminated in access\nto all eight possible isomers with deuterium incorporated selectively\nat each available carbon atom is described. Access to this library\nof isotopologues provides new tools to more fully investigate the\natmospheric autoxidation of α-pinene, a complex process that\nplays a major role in the formation of secondary organic aerosol in\nthe Earth’s atmosphere.
