Halogens are suggested as important atmospheric oxidants in the marine boundary layer. The room-temperature kinetics of the chlorine-initiated reactions of three biogenic brominated hydrocarbons and four anthropogenic chlorinated ethenes was investigated by gas chromatography with flame ionization detection (GC–FID) at a pressure of 1 atm (1 atm = 101.325 kPa) in air, using the relative rate technique. The rate constants (× 1013 cm3 molecule–1 s–1) for CH2Br2, CHBr2Cl, and CHBr3 reactions at 298 ± 2 K were found to be 4.25 ± 0.65, 2.03 ± 0.31, and 2.81 ± 0.41, respectively, using methane as a reference compound. Room temperature rate constants (±1011 cm3 molecule–1 s–1) obtained for 1,1-dichloroethene, cis-dichloroethene, trans-dichloroethene, and trichloroethene using ethene as a reference are 13.4 ± 3.3, 9.1 ± 2.3, 7.4 ± 1.8, and 7.7 ± 1.9, respectively. The rate constants of chlorine-atom reactions with various hydrocarbons obtained in this work and taken from literature were correlated with corresponding rate constants of the OH radical available in the literature. The temperature dependences for the reactions of chlorine atoms with chlorinated ethenes were studied within the 298–358 K range. The corresponding Arrhenius expressions for the rate constants are (cm3 molecule–1 s–1): ln k = (–25.26 ± 0.17) – (758 ± 55)/T for 1,1-dichloroethene, ln k = (–25.79 ± 0.10) – (799 ± 34)/T for cis-dichloroethene, ln k = (–26.74 ± 0.09) – (1018 ± 28)/T for trans-dichloroethene, and ln k = (–26.10 ± 0.26) – (846 ± 83)/T for trichloroethene. In addition, product studies for the chlorine-initiated gas phase oxidation reactions of CHBr3 and CHBr2Cl were performed using gas chromatography with mass spectrometric detection (GC–MS). The only identified product for the reaction of CHBr3 with Cl reaction was COBr2, while for the CHBr2Cl + Cl reaction, COBrCl and COCl2 were observed, indicating the possibility of halogen atom release. The atmospheric implications of the results obtained are discussed.Key words: tropospheric reactions, kinetics, chlorine atoms, chlorinated hydrocarbons, brominated hydrocarbons.

Kinetics Of

Liquid 1,2-dichloroethane has been chlorinated by dissolved chlorine to a succession of chloroethanes up to the ultimate hexachloroethane. The results of both batch and continuous stirred tank reactor systems have been analysed by computer techniques to give a set of relative rate constants from which one can predict the product composition for a given chlorine uptake, the aim in this work being to optimize the production of tetrachloroethanes. An unusual feature of the kinetics is that 1,1,1,2- and 1,1,2,2-tetrachloroethanes provide alternative pathways between 1,1,2-trichloroethane and pentachloroethane.

Electrostatic Quadrupole

A new method for studying cluster-cluster interactions is introduced which involves merging mass-selected beams of oppositely charged cluster ions with an electrostatic quadrupole deflector. Recombination is monitored by measuring the rate of fast neutral production. Relative rate constants have been measured for the reaction of H 3O+( H 2 O )n+ OH −( H 2 O )m as a function of cluster size (m=n=0–3), which display a pronounced enhancement with clustering. Relative rate constants have also been measured as a function of center-of-mass collision energy for a heavily clustered reaction (n=3, m=3) and a lightly clustered reaction (n=1, m=0) revealing that clustering produces a dramatic change in the reaction mechanism.

Oxygen Atoms

Reaction of oxygen atoms with 1,3-butadiene has been investigated at room temperature. It is found that it conforms to the general mechanism established previously for the analogous reactions of monoolefins. Only 1,2-addition occurs, and the addition products, butadiene monoxide and 3-butenal, possess excess energy when formed as a result of high heats of reaction. The pressure dependence of the formation of the addition products yields the values of the "lifetimes" of the initially produced "hot" molecules. The relative rate constants have been determined at 25 and 127 °C and from these the relative values of the Arrhenius parameters have been calculated.
