Little information exists concerning the atmospheric degradation of unsaturated esters, which are mainly initiated by OH radicals. Limited information is available on the degradation of alkenes by Cl atoms, although almost no data exists for the reactions of unsaturated esters with Cl atoms. This data is necessary to assess the impact of
