Kinetics of the reactions of Cl atoms with CF3C(O)OCH3, CF3C(O)OCH2CH3, CF2HC(O)OCH3 in the temperature range of 287-313Â K and 1Â atm

- First k vs. temperature study (Arrhenius parameters) of Cl + fluoroacetates.
- k increases with temperature with Ea/R in the range of 1216-1637 K−1.
- Agreement between experimental and theoretical kinetic data.
- Reactivity toward Cl correlates with HOMO of halogenated compounds.
