Abstract

The bimolecular rate constants for the reaction of e - aq with chlorotoluenes, chloronitrobenzenes and chloronitrotoluenes have been determined from the decay of e - aq. With chlorotoluenes, e - aq reacts by dissociative electron capture without any transient absorption band in 270–500 nm region. In case of chloronitrobenzenes and chloronitrotoluenes, e - aq forms a transient band with λ max in 290–310 nm region without any Cl - formation. Hydroxyl alkyl radicals, derived from alcohols, do not seem to react with chlorotoluenes whereas a transient species with λ max=305–315 nm region are formed on addition of hydroxy alkyl radical to —NO 2 group of chloronitrobenzenes.
