Short summary
We investigated the new particle formation (NPF) potential of three atmospherically relevant oxygenated organic molecules (OOMs) using high-level computational methods. Cluster thermodynamics and formation rates were evaluated for systems containing sulfuric acid and various nitrogen bases. All three OOMs enhanced cluster formation, with dimethylamine-containing clusters showing the greatest effect. Pinyl diaterpenylic ester formed the most stable clusters due to its molecular flexibility.
