Hydrogen atom abstraction from silane, trimethylsilane and tetramethylsilane by trifluoromethyl radicals
Abstract
The reactions of trifluoromethyl radicals with silane, trimethylsilane and tetramethylsilane have been studied in the gas phase. Arrhenius parameters (based on a value of 1013.36 mol–1 cm3 s–1 for the velocity constant for the combination of trifluoromethyl radicals) have been measured or estimated for the following reactions: [graphic ommitted].
