A. Chichinin et al., KINETIC INVESTIGATION OF THE OH-K AND 390-K(CH3BR REACTION BETWEEN 248), Journal of atmospheric chemistry, 18(3), 1994, pp. 239-245
The rate parameters for the reaction of the OH radical with CH3Br have
been measured using the discharge flow-electron paramagnetic resonanc
e method. The result is k1 = (1.86+/-0.48) x 10(-12) exp[-(1230+/-150)
/T] cm3 molecule-1 s-1. This value is compared to earlier data and is
found to be in excellent agreement with the most recent results, which
greatly increases the accuracy of the ozone depletion potential of CH
3Br which can be derived from these kinetic data.
