Reactions of alkali halides in airborne sea salt particles with gases are believed to generate photochemically active halogen-containing gases. Upon photolysis, these generate atomic halogens such as Cl and Br, which may play a significant role in the chemistry of the marine boundary layer under certain conditions. At the present time, both the kinetics and the mechanisms of the heterogeneous reactions of alkali halides with atmospherically relevant gases such as the oxides of nitrogen are controversial. The results of ongoing studies of the reactions of NaCl and NaBr with oxides of nitrogen such as NO{sub 2} and HNO{sub 3} in this laboratory will be presented, with emphasis on the observation of unique reactive intermediates. The implications for the chemistry of the marine boundary layer will be discussed.
