Rate constants for the reactions O(3P) + HX → OH + X (X = Br, I) have been determined by a phase shift technique. Oxygen atoms were generated by modulated mercury photosensitized decomposition of nitrous oxide, and were monitored by the chemiluminescence from the reaction with nitric oxide. Over the temperature interval 298–554 K, the rate constants are satisfactorily represented by the Arrhenius expressions kO+HBr = (8.09 ± 0.86) × 109 exp (−3.59 ± 0.08)/RT and kO+HI = (2.82 ± 0.27) × 1010 exp (−1.99 ± 0.07)/RT, where the units are ℓ mol−1 s−1 and kcal mol−1. The indicated uncertainties are one standard deviation. The results of bond energy–bond order calculations, incorporating recently proposed modifications, are discussed.

Rate constants were determined for the reactions of O(3P) atoms with allene and with 1,3-butadiene by a phase shift technique in which oxygen atoms were generated by modulated mercury photosensitized decomposition of nitrous oxide and monitored by the chemiluminescence from their reaction with NO. Over the temperature interval 297–574 K, the Arrhenius equation for the O(3P) + allene reaction is k1A = (2.99 ± 0.41) × 10−11 exp [(−941 ± 54)/T] cm3 molecule−1 s−1, where the indicated uncertainties are 95% confidence limits. At 299 and 488 K, the rate constant for O(3P) + 1,3-butadiene is essentially the same, within 10%, with an average value of 2.07 × 10−11 cm3 molecule−1 s−1.

The addition of ethane to nitrogen dioxide either during exposure to radiation transmitted by pyrex, or afterwards, reduces the amount of oxygen formed. At room temperature this is apparently due to the effectiveness of ethane in promoting the reverse reaction of nitric oxide and oxygen to form nitrogen dioxide. At temperatures over 100° there is a reaction which uses oxygen atoms produced in the primary process. Nitroethane (or nitrosoethane) is formed along with carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, and some methane. The results suggest that acetaldehyde is an intermediate, but acetaldehyde could not be detected because it would react thermally with nitrogen dioxide. It is not possible to give a complete explanation of the results, but suggestions can be made which might form the basis for later work.
