Abstract
With analogy to the nitric anion, aqueous NO2 − codissolved with chloride is found to promote photochlorination of some reactive organic compounds in contact with those solutions. Both overall patterns of the process and the quantum yields of this chlorine transfer into the organic phase, are found to be very similar to the patterns and yields of reactions which involved nitrates and were carried out under artificial illumination. With further analogy to those photoreactions of nitrate-chloride systems, the overall kinetics outlined in the laboratory for systems comprising nitrites are also followed, with higher quantum yields, under sunlight illumination.
