Cavity ring-down spectroscopy (CRDS), end-product analysis, and ab initio calculations have determined absorption cross sections, rate coefficients, reaction mechanisms, and thermochemistry relevant to the addition of halogen atoms to propargyl chloride and propargyl bromide. Halogen atoms were produced by laser photolysis, and the addition reaction products were probed at a variable delay by CRDS using a second laser pulse. We report the continuum spectra of C3H3Cl2 (1,2-dichloroallyl), C3H3ClBr (1-chloro-2-bromoallyl), and C3H3Br2 (1,2-dibromoallyl) radicals between 238 and 252 nm and the absorption cross sections, sigma(240)(C3H3Cl2) = (4.20 +/-1.05) x 10(-17) cm(2) molecule(-1) and sigma(242)(C3H3Br2) = (1.04 +/- 0.31) X 10(-17) cm(2) molecule(-1). When the observed data are fit to complex reaction schemes, the 298 K rate coefficients for formation of 1,2-dihaloallyl radicals at 665 Pa were found to be k(Cl + C3H3Cl) = (1.2 +/- 0.2) x 10(-10) cm(3) molecule(-1) s(-1) and k(Br + C3H3Br) = (2 +/- 1) x 10(-12) cm(3) molecule(-1) s(-1). At 298 K and 665 Pa the self-reaction rate coefficients of these radicals were found to be k(C3H3Cl2 + C3H3Cl2) = (3.4 +/- 0.9) x 10(-11) cm(3) molecule(-1) s(-1) and k(C3H3Br2 + C3H3Br2) = (1.7 +/- 1.1) x 10(-11) cm(3) molecule(-1) s(-1). The listed uncertainties are twice the standard deviation of individual determinations, and those for rate coefficients include the uncertainty of the appropriate absorption cross section.
