Abstract

AbstractFar infrared laser magnetic resonance (FIR‐LMR) spectra of CF3, CHF2, and CH2F radicals were observed in the 300–800 μm wavelength region in the reactions of F atoms with a series of different hydrocarbon and partially fluorinated hydrocarbon molecules. To identify the carriers of the observed resonance patterns and to exclude or identify contamination of the spectra by additional resonances from other paramagnetic species, numerous chemical tests were developed and performed. With optimized sources and the chemical tests in hand, many spectra could be unambiguously attributed to CF3, CHF2, and CH2F, respectively. The present study reports the first gas phase detection of CHF2 radicals in their ground electronic state.
