In this article, a mass-spectrometric detection of HOBr with atomic chlorine, with oxygen and with hydroxyl radicals at 300 K using the discharge flow technique was performed.
Abstract
The reactions of HOBr with atomic chlorine (1), with oxygen (2) and with hydroxyl radicals (3) have been investigated at 300 K using the discharge flow technique with mass-spectrometric detection. The rate constants based on HOBr consumption have been determined to be k 1 = (8.0±0.4).10 -11 and k 2 = (3.1±0.2).10 -11 . For the reaction with OH radicals k 3 < 5.10 -13 was obtained. All rate constants are given in units cm 3 molecule -1 s -1 . The reactions of HOBr with Cl and with O are shown to proceed via bromine abstraction with formation of BrCI and BrO, respectively. The predominant channel in the reaction of OH with BrCl was identified to be step (4a) OH+BrCl → HOBr+Cl (4a) Based on the present kinetic investigation the heat of formation for HOBr at T= 300 K was evaluated to be ΔH f 0 (HOBr) = - (60.22 ± 2) kJ.mol -1 .

Experimental verification of gas phase bromine enrichment in reactions of HOBr with sea salt doped ice surfaces

TL;DR: Significant gas phase bromine enrichment is experimentally verified on flowing gaseous HOBr over ice surfaces doped with sodium halides of sea salt composition as discussed by the authors, and it is argued that formation of Br 2 Cl - in the condensed phase followed by its dissociation with release of B 2 into the gas phase accounts for this phenomenon.
