RESUMO
Nitrate radical (NO(3)) reactions with benzene (R-1), toluene (R-2), p-xylene (R-3), p-cresol (R-4) and mesitylene (R-5) have been studied by laser photolysis/long path laser absorption (LP-LPLA) in aqueous solution. Rate constants of k(1)=(4.0+/-0.6). 10(8), k(2)=(1.2+/-0.3). 10(9), k(3)=(1.6+/-0.1). 10(9), k(4)= (8.4+/-2.3). 10(8) and k(5)=(1.3+/-0.3). 10(9) lmol(-1)s(-1) were obtained at T=298 K. In addition, reaction rate coefficients for SO(-)(5)+Fe(2+)-->prod. (R-6) and SO(-)(5)+Mn(2+)-->prod. (R-7) of k(6)=(4.3+/-2.4). 10(7) lmol(-1)s(-1) and k(7)=(4.6+/-1.0). 10(6) lmol(-1)s(-1) (T=298 K, I-->0) have been obtained by the application of laser photolysis/UV-VIS broadband diode array spectroscopy. A new laser photolysis/UV-long path laser absorption experiment has been applied to study the reaction of the Cl(-)(2) radical anion with dissolved sulfur(IV). For the reactions Cl(-)(2)+HSO(-)(3)-->2Cl(-)+H(+)+SO(-)(3) (R-8) and Cl(-)(2)+SO(2-)(3)-->2Cl(-)+SO(-)(3) (R-9) rate coefficients of k(8)=(1.7+/-0.2). 10(8) lmol(-1)s(-1) (T=298 K, I-->0) and of k(9)=(6.2+/-0.3). 10(7) lmol(-1)s(-1) (T=279 K, I-->0) were obtained.
