## Abstract The chemical activation data for threeβ and fourβcentered hydrogen fluoride elimination from CH~2~FCDF~2~ have been analyzed to assign the energy released to the olefin fragment in the threeβcentered process and to estimate the threshold energies for elimination channels. Based upon the

β¦ Synopsis
The vibrationally excited molecules CF,CH,* and CF,CD,* have been synthesized by radical combination (produced by ketone photolysis), and HF and DF elimination from them studied as a function of temperature and pressure. Using RRK theory many calculations have recently been made of critical energies for the decomposition of "hot" fluoroethane molecules. Taking CF,CH,* as an example, it is concluded that the empiricism involved in such calculations renders results of doubtful significance. The non-equilibrium kinetic isotope effect is k,/k, = 3.1 at 470Β°K. Arrhenius parameters are also presented for radical abstraction reactions from the ketone source molecules.

The thermal, unimolecular elimination of HF from CH3CF3 was studied by three different groups over the temperature range 1000" to 1800Β°K. While the reported kinetic parameters varied greatly, it is shown here that these data may be satisfactorily correlated in terms of a four-center transition state
A srudy has been made of the unimolecular decomposition of the vibrationally excited molecule CFZDCFHz\*, formed from the combination of CFzD and CFH? radicals. The a,B-elirnination channels lead to the products cisand trans-CFDCFH and CFzCHz and H(D)F. The a,a-elimination channel produces cisand tr
