Most dictionaries list citation form pronunciations, which are useless since many words are not emphasized in speech.
The word 'particularly' contains two r's. So, expect r dissimilation even when emphasized.
The second point is about the combination r and l. In English, /rl/ or /lr/ constant cluster doesn't exist. Even though you see words like world, girl, Charles, Charleston, Burlingame, Carl, curl, darling, etc, their phonetic realization is like "bunched r + velarized l". You don't hear them as consonants. You usually hear a vowel between them.
Sometimes, you end up not pronouncing r in that combination. Charleston > Chalston; Charles > Chalz
particularly > paticularly (r dissimilation) > pa'ticul(ar)lee (cf. above) > pa-ticulee >pa-'tikya-lee (present of yod) > pa-tiklee ( no yod)
necessary > 'nece,ssary
necessarily > ,nece'ssarily > ne'ssarily (call it /s/ dissimilation)
