Free radical chemistry of disinfection-byproducts. 1. Kinetics of hydrated electron and hydroxyl radical reactions with halonitromethanes in water
Halonitromethanes are disinfection-byproducts formed during ozonation and chlorine/chloramine treatment of waters that contain bromide ion and natural organic matter. In this study, the chemical kinetics of the free-radical-induced degradations of a series of halonitromethanes were determined. Absolute rate constants for hydroxyl radical, (OH)-O-center dot, and hydrated electron, e(aq)(-), reaction with both chlorinated and brominated halonitromethanes were measured using the techniques of electron pulse radiolysis and transient absorption spectroscopy. The bimolecular rate constants obtained, k (M-1 s(-1)), for e(aq)(-)/(OH)-O-center dot, respectively, were the following: chloronitromethane (3.01 +/- 0.40) x 10(10)/(1.94 +/- 0.32) x 10(8); dichloronitromethane (3.21 +/- 0.17) x 10(10)/(5.12 +/- 0.77) x 10(8); bromonitromethane (3.13 +/- 0.06) x 10(10)/(8.36 +/- 0.57) x 10(7); dibromonitromethane (3.07 +/- 0.40) x 10(10)/(4.75 +/- 0.98) x 10(8); tribromonitromethane (2.29 +/- 0.39) x 10(10)/(3.25 +/- 0.67) x 10(8); bromochloronitromethane (2.93 +/- 0.47) x 10(10)/(4.2 +/- 1.1) x 10(8); bromodichloronitromethane (2.68 +/- 0.13) x 10(10)/(1.02 +/- 0.15) x 10(8); and dibromochloronitromethane (2.95 +/- 0.43) x 10(10)/(1.80 +/-0.31) x 10(8) at room temperature and pH similar to 7. Comparison data were also obtained for hydroxyl radical reaction with bromoform (1.50 +/- 0.05) x 10(8), bromodichloromethane (7.11 +/- 0.26) x 10(7), and chlorodibromomethane (8.31 +/- 0.25) x 10(7) M-1 s(-1), respectively. These rate constants are compared to recently obtained data for trichloronitromethane and bromonitromethane, as well as to other established literature data for analogous compounds.
