Room temperature rate coefficients have been determined for the reactions of Cl (2P3/2) atoms with methanol, ethanol, formaldehyde and acetaldehyde. Cl atoms were produced by laser flash photolysis of molecular chlorine, in the presence of oxygen to prevent chain chemistry. IR emission from vibrationally excited HCl was observed for all reagents. For the reactions with methanol and acetaldehyde the kinetics have been determined by both IR diode laser absorption spectroscopy (kCl+CH3OH = (5.83 ± 0.77) × 10−11 cm3 molecule−1 s−1kCl+CH3CHO = (7.7 ± 1.1) × 10−11 cm3 molecule−1 s−1) and IR chemiluminescence (kCl+CH3OH = (5.38 ± 0.25) × 10−11 cm3 molecule−1 s−1, kCl+CH3CHO = (8.8 ± 1.5) × 10−11 cm3 molecule−1 s−1. For ethanol and formaldehyde IR chemiluminescence measurements gave kCl+HCHO = (6.98 ± 0.69) × 10−11 cm3 molecule−1 s−1 and kCl+C2H5OH = (1.02 ± 0.19) × 10−10 cm3 molecule−1 s−1. The fraction of vibrationally excited HCl was determined relative to that of acetaldehyde and when put on an absolute scale the values for methanol, ethanol and formaldehyde were: 0.25 ± 0.04, 0.21 ± 0.03 and 0.91 ± 0.14 respectively.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
