After formation, organic 21 chloramines degrade into aldehydes, nitriles and N-chloraldimines. In this paper, the formation 22 of organic chloramines from chlorination of lysine, tyrosine and valine were investigated. 23 Chlorination of tyrosine and lysine demonstrated that the presence of a reactive secondary 24 group can increase the Cl:AA ratio required for the formation of N,N-dichloramines, and 25 potentially alter the reaction pathways between chlorine and amino acids, resulting in the 26 formation of unexpected by-products. In a detailed investigation, we report rate constants for 27 all reactions in the chlorination of valine, for the first time, using experimental results and 28 modelling. At Cl:AA = 2.8, the chlorine was found to first react quickly with valine (5.4x104 29 M-1 s-1) to form N-monochlorovaline, with a slower subsequent reaction with N- 30 monochlorovaline to form N,N-dichlorovaline (4.9x102 M-1 s-1), although some N- 31 monochlorovaline degraded into isobutyraldehyde (1.0x10-4 s-1).
