Reactions in 1,1,1-Trifluoroacetone Triggered by Low Energy Electrons (0-10 eV): From Simple Bond Cleavages to Complex Unimolecular Reactions
The impact of low energy electrons (0-10 eV) to 1,1,1-trifluoroacetone yields a variety of fragment anions which are formed via dissociative electron attachment (DEA) through three pronounced resonances located at 0.8 eV, near 4 eV, and in the energy range 8-9 eV. The fragment ions arise from different reactions ranging from the direct cleavage of one single or double bond (formation of F-, CF3-, O-, (M-H)(-), and M-F)(-)) to remarkably complex unimolecular reactions associated with substantial geometric and electronic rearrangement in the transitory intermediate (formation of OH-, FHF-, (M-HF)(-), CCH-, and HCCO-. The ion CCH-, for example, is formed by an excision of unit from the target molecule through the concerted cleavage of four bonds and recombination to H2O within the neutral component of the reaction.
