Abstract
The photolysis of aqueous acid solutions of Mo2O42+ containing bromide ion as a ligand was studied by flash-photolysis. The decay of the det ected reaction intermediates follows a first order kinetics. The obser ved rate constant, determined at different temperatures is inversely d ependent on hydrogen ion concentration and independent of bromide ion concentration. The results are interpreted in terms of a reaction mech anism which proposes the decay of the reaction intermediate Mo2O3(H2O) (7)Br3+ leading to the formation of Mo(VI) and H-2, detected as reacti on products.
