The effective deactivation rate constants are calculated for I{sub 2}(X) molecules at vibrational levels with v {>=} 30 colliding with N{sub 2} and O{sub 2} molecules in the medium of a chemical oxygen-iodine laser. The calculated constants (4x10{sup -12} cm{sup 3} s{sup -1} and 3x10{sup -12} cm{sup 3} s{sup -1}) are less by half plus than the corresponding constants found earlier in the paper of Lawrence et al., where the dissociation of I{sub 2} was neglected in calculations.
