The Arrhenius parameters of the bimolecular rate constants for the decay of several phenoxyl radicals in aqueous solution were measured. The p ‐halophenoxyl radicals (F, Cl, and Br) decay in a diffusion controlled reaction as the activation energies are the same as that of diffusion of water (16 ± 1.5 kJ · mol −1 ). The A factors are 10 12.2 ± 0.2 . For alkyl and alkoxy substituted phenoxyl, slightly higher activation energies were found (19.5 − 21.9 kJ · mol −1 ). © 1993 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
