Abstract
Infrared multiphoton dissociation of pentafluoroiodoethane leads to a complex array of reaction products. For photolysis in the v4 band the reaction mechanism involves C2F5—I bond cleavage followed by thermal dissociation of C2F5 radicals. For irradiation within the v3 band at high fluence, efficient secondary photolysis of C2F5 radicals is postulated. At lower fluences the dissociation is isotopically selective leading to C4F10 enriched in carbon-13.Keywords
