Kinetic study of the reactions OH + Mono-, Di-, and trichloroacetaldehyde and acetaldehyde by laser photolysis-resonance fluorescence at 298 K

Journal Article · · Journal of Physical Chemistry

Laser photolysis-resonance fluorescence at 298 K is used to obtain absolute rate constants for the gas-phase reactions of OH radicals with three trichloroacetaldehydes and acetaldehyde. The rate constants for all but trichloroacetaldehyde are in good agreement with previous literature with the discrepant one being lower by a factor of 2, which is possibly due to reactivity trend among chlorine substituted carbonyl compounds. 28 refs., 5 figs., 1 tab.
