✦ Synopsis


Recent studies suggest that the destruction of methane by Cl* in the marine boundary layer could be accounted for as another major sink besides the methane destruction by OH l . High level ab initio molecular orbital calculations have been carried out to study the CH4 + Cl l reaction, the carbon Kinetic Isotope Effect (KIE) is calculated using Conventional Transition-State Theory (CTST) plus Wigner and Eckart semiclassical tunneling corrections. The calculated KIE is around 1.026 at 300 K and has a small temperature variation. This is by far the largest KIE among different processes involving atmospheric methane destruction (e.g., OH l , soil). A calculated mass balance of atmospheric methane including the KIE for the CH4 + Cl l reaction is found to favor those methane budgets with enhanced biological methane sources, which have relatively lighter carbon isotope composition.

## Abstract The kinetic isotope effects in the reaction of methane (CH~4~) with Cl atoms are studied in a relative rate experiment at 298 ± 2 K and 1013 ± 10 mbar. The reaction rates of ^13^CH~4~, ^12^CH~3~D, ^12^CH~2~D~2~, ^12^CHD~3~, and ^12^CD~4~ with Cl radicals are measured relative to ^12^CH~
