Upper limit for the rate of reaction of Cl( 2P J) with methyl chloroform

The kinetics of the reaction Cl( 2P J ) + ▪ CCl 3 + HCl has been investigated over the temperature range 259–403 K. Cl( 2P J ) was prepared by 355 mm pulsed laser photolysis of Cl 2 and detected by time-resolved resonance fluorescence. Upper limits for k 3( T) in units of 10 −14 cm 3 molecule −1 s −...

Summary:The kinetics of the reaction Cl( 2P J ) + ▪ CCl 3 + HCl has been investigated over the temperature range 259–403 K. Cl( 2P J ) was prepared by 355 mm pulsed laser photolysis of Cl 2 and detected by time-resolved resonance fluorescence. Upper limits for k 3( T) in units of 10 −14 cm 3 molecule −1 s −1 are 2.40 at 259 K, 3.68 at 298 K, and 7.74 at 356 K. At 403 K, secondary production of Cl( 2P J ) was observed under all experimental conditions. The title reaction is too show to be important in atmospheric chemistry.
