Electric Field Effect on the Chemical Activation Processes of 1,1,2,2-Tetrafluorocyclopropane

Article abstract of DOI:10.1021/j100372a085

The electric field effect on the decomposition and energy-transfer process of chemically activated 1,1,2,2-tetrafluorocyclopropane is studied.The apparent unimolecular rate constant is measured as a function of the electric field strength in the range 0-7.2 kV/cm.A significant dependence of the experimental constant on the electric field was observed up to a saturation value.Several explanations for this behavior are analyzed.
