✦ Synopsis
Ab initio molecular orbital calculations have been used to explore decomposition pathways of carbonofluorochloridic acid, FC(O)OCl. Results from this study suggest that the isolated FC (0)OCl molecule IS a stable species with respect to unimolecular dissociation. Transition states and barriers from the dissociation process are provided. Additionally, the role that decomposition of FC( 0)OCl may play in atmospheric processes is considered.
