The atmospheric oxidation of methyl hydroperoxide by the hydroxyl radical has been investigated employing high level theoretical methods. This reaction is important in the chemistry of the troposphere because these species contribute to the oxidizing capacity of the atmosphere and therefore we have studied the bare reaction and the effect of the relative humidity as well. In both cases the reaction can proceed either by abstraction of the terminal hydrogen atom of the OH group, producing CH
