        abstract = {In this paper we show that bromide scavenges the {\^a}?cOH radicals formed upon photolysis of nitrate, before they leave the solvent cage. Bromide can thus inhibit the in-cage recombination between {\^a}?cOH and {\^a}?cNO2. The consequence is an increased generation of {\^a}?cNO2 and nitrite and of Br2 -{\^a}?c + {\^a}?cOH, compared to {\^a}?cOH alone in the absence of bromide. We show that this effect compensates for the lower reactivity of Br2 -{\^a}?c compared to {\^a}?cOH toward certain organic substrates, e.g. phenol and tryptophan. Our findings could lead to a deep revision of the present views of the role of bromide in saltwater photochemistry. {\^A}{\copyright} 2008 Springer-Verlag.},
