Notes:
The addition of bromide ions to the component solutions of the Briggs- Rauscher oscillating system produces a variety of phenomena, depending on the sequence of the addition and on the initial bromide concentration. If the addition is made some minutes after the mixing of H2O2 and acidic IO3- and before adding malonic acid and Mn2+ ions, the oscillations last for five or six cycles, then suddenly ceases. If the addition is made immediately after the mixing of H2O2 and acidic IO3- and before adding malonic acid and Mn2+ ions, the oscillations do not start at all. The addition of bromide ions to an actively oscillating BR reaction causes a rapid suppression of the oscillations. Our observations may be accounted for by a mechanism involving the IBr species. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Int J Chem Kinet: 30: 641-646, 1998
