The room temperature photolysis of 1,l-dichloroethane at 147 nm in the pressure range of 1.34-196.2 torr is characterized almost entirely by the molecular elimination of HCl, Cl,, and small quantities of HD. While it is possible that the C2HD arises, in part, from the decomposition of vibrationally

Abstract
1,1,1‐Difluorochloroethane (Freon 142) was photolyzed at 147 nm in the pressure range of 3.6–20.6 torr. The effects of added NO, H~2~S, and CF~4~ were investigated. The extinction coefficient at 147 nm and 296°K was determined to be 64 ± 8 atm^−1^ · cm^−1^.
The molecule photodecomposes largely by α,β elimination of HCl to give 1,1‐difluoroethylene (Φ = 0.74 ± 0.06). There is no observable elimination of HF, but there is strong evidence for the elimination of the elements of FCl though the relative importance of this process is minor, as are contributions from carboncarbon and carbonhalogen bond fission.
The 1,1‐difluoroethylene formed is undoubtedly vibratonally excited and is the source of a pressure‐dependent small yield of fluoroacetylene. Over the pressure range studied there is no evidence that the major primary process itself is affected by changes in total pressure as is the case in the 147‐nm photolysis of ethyl chloride.

The 147 nm (8.4 eV) photolysis of gaseous C2H51, n-C3H71, and sec-C3H71 was investigated in the presence of and absence of HI. The main overall processes are: These dissociative processes occur mainly as a result of initial cleavage of the weak C-1 bond, followed by decomposition of the internally
