Kinetics and Mechanism of the Chlorate–Nitrous Acid Reaction

Kinetics and Mechanism of the Chlorate–Nitrous Acid Reaction
Rafaela T. P. Sant’Anna, Roberto B. Faria
The chlorate−nitrous acid reaction presented a complex behavior, in acid media, producing chlorine dioxide only after all nitrous acid was consumed. An isosbestic point at 312 nm indicates a 1:1 ratio between nitrate ion and nitrous acid species. This is the first time chlorine dioxide was observed to be formed by this reaction. The proposed mechanism is a significant improvement in the understanding of the complex nitrogen and chlorine aqueous chemistry.
