One of the secondary constituents of this includes peroxyacetyl nitrate, which can be generated by the oxidation of VOCs. The primary constituent of this mixture is a phytotoxin and can be generated via multiple pathways including one where an excited oxygen atom produced from a photon at a wavelength between 280 and 310 nm, generates an OH seed that subsequently participates in a chain reaction involving the photolyzation of NO2  and formaldehyde. The incremental reactivity of the present hydrocarbon, the most reactive being terminally bound olefins and the least reactive being ethane, with the hydroxyl radical, characterizes the rate of formation for ozone , the primary constituent. With the largest concentrations of this occurring 10-100km from the main hydrocarbon emission source, for 10 points, name this atmospheric pollutant responsible for the characteristic haze over L.A. and pretty sunsets.
