Abstract:Attempts were made to study the kinetics of the reaction of atomic H with (CF3)2CO vapour (HFA). Atomic H was generated from H2 by mercury photosensitization in the presence of C2H4 and HFA but the system was complicated by the loss of C2H5 radicals by addition to HFA and the kinetic results were intractable. When atomic H was generated from C3H8, the kinetics again were obscured by some unidentified reaction(s) which became more important at higher [HFA]/[C3H8]. An estimate of the rate constant for the additi… Show more
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.
