The reaction of NO3 with C2H5I was studied using time resolved cavity ring-down spectroscopy. The rate constant of NO3 + C2H5I reaction was determined
to be (2.4 +/- 0.4) x 10 (13) cm(3) molecule (1) s (1) at 298 K and showed no pressure dependence
in the range of 25-100 Torr of N-2 diluent. The determined value of the rate constant suggests
that the reaction of NO3 with C2H5I would play an important role in the iodine cycle at night.
