Abstract
The unimolecular homogeneous decomposition of hexafluoroazomethane was studied in a VLPP apparatus in the temperature range 720โ1050 K and is consistent with the following Arrhenius parameters:
at 900 K, where the A factor was assumed to be the same as for 2,2โฒโazoisobutane. The homogeneous rate of recombination of ยทCF~3~ radicals at temperatures around 1000 K was also studied under VLPP conditions and was found to be in the fallโoff region, corresponding to k/k^โ^ = 8.5 ร 10^โ3^ when a rotational transitionโstate model was used. This model predicts an essentially constant value of k~r~^โ^ of 10^9.7^ over the temperature range 300โ1000 K.

Recombination reactions of radicals generated by photolysis are often analyzed by considering the reactive dynamics of an isolated geminate pair. However, when the concentration of photodissociated radical pairs is high, the recombination of nongeminate radicals should also be taken into account. Th
