Vacuum ultraviolet photolysis of CClF₂CH₂Cl

Abstract

Photolysis of CClFzCHzCl was studied by 147 nm vacuum ultraviolet irradiation. In the presence of NO; CFzCHz, CFZCHC1, and CClFzCN were produced. These products represent three different reaction paths; the molecular dechlorination, molecular dehydrochlorination, and chlorine radical elimination reactions. The reactant pressure and the addition gas (He or NO) pressure effects upon the product yield were studied.
