Kinetics of reactions of CN with chlorinated methanes

The kinetics of reactions of CN with the chlorinated methanes CH3Cl, CH2Cl2, CHCl3 and CCl4 were investigated over the temperature range 298-573 K, using laser induced fluorescence (LIF) spectroscopy. At 298 K, rate constants of 9.0 ± 0.3 × 10-13, 8.8 ± 0.4 × 10-13, 9.0 ± 0.5 × 10-13 and 4.3 ± 0.6 × 10-13 cm3 molecule-1 s-1 were measured, respectively. A small positive temperature dependence was observed, as well as kinetic isotope effects of kH/kD ～ 2.14-2.25. These data along with product detection experiments strongly suggest that hydrogen abstraction dominates these reactions.
