It was found that 1,3-dichloro-5,5-dimethylhydantoin (DCDH) and 1,3-dibromo-5,5-dimethyl-hydantoin (DBDH) react with luminol in aqueous solutions and in organic solvents giving luminous radiation. The optimal conditions for the reaction have been found. A chemiluminescent method was developed for the determination of micro-quantities of DCDH and DBDH in aqueous solutions with detection limits of 0.2 and 4 ng/ml, respectively. The method was used for the analysis of the DBDH content in water and in air in production premises.
