I don't know the exact chemical reaction but my wife and I were told by the jewler not to wear our wedding rings in the pool. I took chemistry in college and I'm pretty sure chlorine forms hydrochloric acid in water, so there is a dilute acidic solution in Swimming Pools. So the reaction involved is between a metal and an acid.
