Laser flash photolysis studies of chlorine atom reactions with fluorinated propenes and methyl amines

The research addresses two groups of reactions: chlorine atom reactions with fluorinated propenes and methyl amines. Most of the reactions were studied over a range of temperature and pressure with the goals of (i) assessing the potential importance of the reactions in atmospheric chemistry and (ii) obtaining kinetic and thermochemical information of fundamental physical–chemical interest. In the studies reported herein, laser flash photolysis (LFP) was coupled with time resolved atomic resonance fluorescence (RF) spectroscopic detection of chlorine atoms to investigate chlorine atom kinetics.M.S
