Absorption Spectra of the Halogen Monoxides

Abstract: Absorption spectra of ClO, BrO, and IO have been observed during the flash photolysis of Cl2–O2, Br2–O2, and I2–O2 mixtures. Rotational and vibrational analyses of the ClO and BrO spectra have been carried out and appropriate molecular constants derived. The transitions are of the type 2Πi(case a)—2Πi (case a). Extensive predissociation has been observed in all three spectra. Theoretical and experimental evidence is presented to show that the excited states dissociate to X(2P3/2) + O(1D). From the observed or … Show more

“…The first photoelectron band of BrO, prepared from reaction ͑1͒, is vibrationally resolved and allows the first AIE of BrO to be measured as (10.46Ϯ0.02) eV, in good agreement with previous measurements from photoionization mass spectrometry. 18 Assuming BrO(X 2 ⌸) dissociates to Br( 2 P) and O( 3 P) and BrO ϩ (X 3 ⌺) dissociates to Br ϩ ( 3 P) and O( 3 P), then D 0 0 (BrO) of (2.39Ϯ0.03) eV 42 and the first ionization energy of atomic bromine of 11.81 eV 24,29 can be combined with the first ionization energy of BrO of (10.46 Ϯ0.02) eV measured in this work to yield D 0 0 (BrO ϩ ,X 3 ⌺ Ϫ ) of (3.74Ϯ0.05) eV.…”

“…The photolysis of Cl 2 in the presence of 0 2 was studied primarily as a check on the new apparatus,_since the system has been intensively studied for more than 20 years [2,[5][6][7][8][9][10][11]. During the course of the study, it became apparent that there remained disagreement between different investigators of the low pressure region for the reaction, 2CIO~Cl 2 +0 2 • Porter [6] was the first to report the existence of the ClO radical in a mixture of chlorine and oxygen after flash photolysis by observing intense vibronic bands from 3100 to 2577 A.· Since its discovery, ClO has been observed in the same ultraviolet region by many investigators, [5,[7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15] with various methods of production. The electron spin resonance of the radical has been observed both in rigid solution [16] and in the gas phase [17,18].…”

“…Koref [ 23 ] (-190°to 0°C) and Westrum and Pitzer [52] (l6°to 530°K) measured the heat capacity of potassium fluoride, KF. Westrum and Pitzer [ 52 ] used an adiabatic calorimeter for the range 16°to 323°K and a ''drop" calorimeter for the range 298°to 530°K.…”
