Abstract
Hydrogen abstraction from methylene chloride by the.OH radical in aqueous solution is monitored by direct observation of the.CHCl2 radical absorption build-up at 220 nm, yielding a bimolecular rate constant of /5.8±0.2/xlo7 M−1s−1 at room temperature. A spectral band extending from 220 nm to 330 nm is assigned to the dichloromethyl radical.
