Five photochemical source have been employed to generate chlorine atoms in solution in the presence of benzene at room temperature.The chlorine atoms react with benzene (k3=6.0*109 M-1 s-1 to form a species which is firmly identified as the C6H6Cl. ?-complex. 1.Laser flash photolytic techniques have been employed to measure absolute rate constants for hydrogen atom abstraction from various alkanes by 1.This species proved to have a reactivity less than that of "free" chlorine atom but greater than that of the tert-butoxyl radical.These absolute rate constants are in satisfactory agreement with the results of competitive chlorinations of certain alkanes in benzene solvent.Absolute rate constants were also measured for the reaction of the "free" chlorine atom with 2,3-dimethylbutane (DMB).A reasonably comprehensive study of the tertiary/primary selectivity for chlorination of DMB over a range of concentrations and in a variety of benzene/CCl4 mixtures has been carried out.It is shown that this DMB selectivity data can be quantitatively described by a kinetic scheme which involves hydrogen abstraction by only two species, "free" Cl. atoms and 1.

Ultraviolet/visible spectra have been recorded for chlorine, bromine, and iodine atom ?-molecular complexes with a number of aromatic compounds.The visible spectra of the I./arene complexes show charge-transfer (CT) bands whose transition energ
