The reduction of chloramine, methylchloramine, dimethylchloramine and N ‐chloro‐3‐azabicyclo[3.3.0]octane by sodium borohydride was studied according to pH, temperature and concentrations of haloamine and reducing agent. The interaction is bimolecular and exhibits a specific acid catalysis. The enthalpy and entropy of activation were determined at pH 12.89. A mathematical treatment of the reaction kinetics allows the complete characterization of the final state and determination of the percentage of reduced haloamine in terms of [NaBH 4 ]/[R 1 R 2 NCl] ratio, pH and temperature. A reaction mechanism is proposed. Copyright © 2002 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
