The kinetics of the reaction of the CF3O radical with NO2 has been studied at 298 K at low pressure (0.5â9 Torr of helium) by fast-flowâlaser-induced fluorescence (LIF), pyrolysis of a dilute mixture of CF3OOCF3 and He being used as the source of the CF3O radical. In good agreement with the results of Zellner and co-workers (obtained in the pressure range 5â100 Torr), the rate constant has been found to be pressure dependent. All the experimental data were analysed by a multichannel RRKM procedure using the results of abinitio calculations as input data. This revealed that two reaction channels, the association CF3O + NO2 â CF3ONO2 (1a) and the disproportionation CF3O + NO2 â CF2O + FNO2 (1b), must be invoked and they proceed via a common energized adduct CF3ONO2*. The pressure dependence of the branching ratio was predicted by this calculation: the disproportionation channel would be negligible near atmospheric pressure and becomes the major channel at pressure below ca. 0.3 Torr, with a calculated second-order limiting low-pressure value of the rate equal to 3.2 à 10â12 cm3 moleculeâ1 sâ1. The high-pressure limit rate constant obtained is kâ = (1.65 ± 0.2) à 10â11 cm3 moleculeâ1 sâ1. An analytical representation of the pressure dependence of the rate constant at 298 K is proposed using the conventional Troe expression with an added constant.

NO2 的反应动力学, OCF3 和 He 的稀释混合物的热解被用作 自由基的来源。与 Zellner 和合作者的研究结果(在 5â100 托压力范围内获得)完全一致,发现速率常数与压力有关。以 abinitio 计算结果为输入数据,采用多通道 RRKM 程序对所有实验数据进行了分析。结果表明,必须调用两个反应通道,即联合反应 + â (1a) 和歧化反应 + â
CF2O + F (1b),它们通过一个共同的通电加合物 * 进行。该计算预测了支化率的压力依赖性:歧化通道在接近大气压时可以忽略不计,而在压力低于约 0.3 托时则成为主要通道,计算得出的二阶极限低压速率值等于 3.2 à 10â12 cm3 molecâ1 sâ1。高压极限速率常数为 kâ = (1.65 ± 0.2) à 10â11 cm3 moleculeâ1 sâ1。利用带有附加常数的传统特罗(Troe)表达式,提出了 298 K 时速率常数随压力变化的分析方法。
