✦ Synopsis

Octafluorocyclobutane

has been shown to decompose clearly to tetrafluoroethylene when irmdidted at room temperature with 949 cm-' radiation from a pulsed CO2 laser. A calculation of the energy absorbed from the laser beam. combined with known unimolecular sate constants for the corre~on~mg thermal reaction, indicates that the thermal reaction cannot account for the observed product yields. ft is proposed that reaction of ~~ratio~a~y excited molecules is re~ponsibie for the observed reaction.

## Abstract The multiple photon absorption and decomposition of ethanol irradiated by pulsed 9P18 infrared radiation (1048.7 cm^βˆ’1^) from a TEA CO~2~ laser has been studied in the fluence range 15 to 5 J cm^βˆ’2^. The absorption cross‐section is pressure‐dependent due to rapid collisional rotational

It has recently been suggested [ll that when l,l,l-trichloroethane is irradiated with a continuous-wave COP laser in the presence of SF6 sensitizer, the decomposition occurs in a molecular manner, viz. CH3CC13 4 CHZ = CCl2 + HC1 rather than by a radical-chain mechanism CHBCC13 CH3 -CC12 + C1 C1 + CH

A COz TEA laser has been used to photolyze dilute samples of various aIky1 halides in helium. The mechanism of the high intensity infrared photolysis of these moiecules involves the decomposition of moiecules into molecular or radical fragments. The reaction pathway is always dissociation into the l
