Non-methane hydrocarbons are generally C1 to C5 alkanes (for example ethane [H3C-CH3]), alkenes (for example isoprene [H2C=C(CH3)CH=CH2]) and alkynes (for example propyne [H3C-C=CH]). These reactive trace gases have an influence on the oxidising capacity of the atmosphere via their reactions with hydroxyl radicals [OH], ozone [O3], and nitrate [NO3].
