The reaction of CHZ('A1) with 1,1,2,2-tetrafluorocyclopropane was studied at 300 K and a t pressures between 9.0 and 365.0 torr. Chemically activated 1-methyl-2,2,3,3-tetrafluorocyclopropane was formed and two competitive reaction paths, namely decomposition and isomerization, were observed. By fitt

Abstract
The unimolecular decomposition of chemically activated methylallylether (MAE) formed by the cross combination of methoxymethyl and vinyl radicals was studied in the gas phase. The experimentally determined rate constant was found to be 1.11 Γ 10^8^ sec^β1^ at 9.6Β°C for the decomposition of MAE into propene and formaldehyde. The decomposition of MAE via the sixβcenter retroββeneβ type transition state is analyzed by using the RRKM unimolecular reaction theory. For the molecular parameter assignments of energized MAE, a model which contains one internal rotational mode is supported, and MAE decomposition is characterized by a tight complex model. The best agreement between experimental and theoretical results was found when a critical energy of 40.1 kcal/mol was used.

A model for the decomposition of methylnitrite ions to produce protonated formaldehyde is proposed which invokes quantummechanical tunneling of hydrogen between the initial C and final 0 atoms. A barrier is adopted, guided by theoretical transitionstate calculations for H transfer from C to H in the
