Abstract

This paper reviews some of the aqueous photochemistry studied in our laboratories and elsewhere which could be extrapolated, albeit with due caution, to photochemical processes in a tropospheric situation. Attention has been limited to cases of chromophores that could possibly be found in an aerosol phase and which would have been in contact with halogens in the liquid-phase so as to have formed or be able to form halogen-chromophore combinations. Foremost amongst the chromophores having potential to be of significance in the liquid phase photochemistry of tropospheric components, we consider three: simple Iron(III) species; the iron (hydrous) oxides such as Fe2O3; and organic materials such as dissolved organic material (DOM), all of which are known to play a major role in the photochemical processes in natural waters.
