✦ Synopsis


The rate constant for the gas-phase reaction of the hydroxyl radical with trifluoroacetic acid has been determined over the temperature range 283-323 K using a relative rate technique. The results provide a value of k( OH+CF,C(O)OH) = 2.O~lO-*~exp(-l46~500/T)cm~molecule~'s-'basedonk(OH+C~H,)=7.8~lO~'~exp(-l020fl00/T)cm~molecule~' s-l for the rate constant of the reference reaction. The OH-radical initiated oxidation of CF,C(O)OH was investigated at 298 K in oxygen at 1 atm total pressure using Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy. The major carbon-containing products were C(O)F,, CF303CF3 and CO*, suggesting that the dominant reaction channel for loss of the CF3C(0)0 radical, formed by hydrogen atom abstraction, is carbon-carbon bond cleavage. The results indicate that the gas-phase reaction of OH radicals with trifluoroacetic acid may provide a sink for this compound in the troposphere that cannot be neglected.

Ethers are being increasingly used as motor fuel additives to increase the octane number and to reduce CO emissions. Since their reaction with hydroxyl radicals (OH) is a major loss process for these oxygenated species in the atmosphere, we have conducted a relative rate study of the kinetics of the
