A model for the sun giving a reaction rate on Cl-37 as low as 0.5 SNU is discussed. The low neutrino emission comes about because the sun is taken to have a core containing 0.3-0.5 of the solar mass with an unusually high concentration of iron-group metals and a low initial concentration of helium. The high opacity caused by the metals makes the core convective, a suggestion which has been made previously by other authors on an ad hoc basis. In such a situation the low neutrino emission arises for the following two reasons: (1) a high hydrogen concentration, X approximately 0.7, is maintained at the center; and (2) convective mixing of Be-7 on a time scale less than the Be-7 destruction time minimizes the importance of Be 7(p, gamma) B8.
