were determined between 300 and 800 K from relative rate measurements by using SF 6 as a reference compound. A flowing afterglow-electron cyclotron resonance technique was employed. Mass spectral analysis of product negative ions confirmed a dissociative attachment mechanism. Semiempirical quantum mechanical calculations of the geometry change associated with negative ion formation were carried out.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
