<p>We present a combined experimental and theoretical investigation of the bimolecular gas phase reaction of the phenyl radical (C<sub>6</sub>H<sub>5</sub>) with silane (SiH<sub>4</sub>) under single collision conditions to investigate the chemical dynamics of forming phenylsilane (C<sub>6</sub>H<sub>5</sub>SiH<sub>3</sub>) via a bimolecular radical substi­tu­tion mechanism at a tetra-coordinated silicon atom. Verified by electronic structure and quasiclassical trajectory calculations, the replacement of a single carbon atom in methane by silicon lowers the barrier to substi­tu­ti­on thus defying conventional wisdom that tetra-coordinated hydrides undergo preferentially hydrogen abstraction. This reaction mechanism provides funda­men­tal insights into the hitherto unexplored gas phase chemical dynamics of radical substitution reactions of mononuclear main group hydrides under single collision conditions and highlights the distinct reactivity of silicon compared to its isovalent carbon. This mechanism might be also involved in the synthesis of cyanosilane (SiH<sub>3</sub>CN) and methylsilane (CH<sub>3</sub>SiH<sub>3</sub>) probed in the circumstellar envelope of the carbon star IRC+10216. </p>

AbstractThe reaction of NO2 with perfluoropropene (C3F6) has been studied at 413.1, 421.0 and 432.8K, using a conventional static system. The initial pressure of NO2 was varied between 43.6 and 204.0Torr and that of C3F6 between 10.2 and 108.5Torr. Several experiments were made adding CF4, varying its pressure from 338.8 to 433.6Torr. Four products were observed: NO and perfluoropropene oxide (PFPO), formed in equivalent amounts, CF3CF(NO2)CF2NO2 and CF3C(O)CF2NO2. The relation R=[PFPO]/([CF3CF(NO2)CF2NO2] + [CF3C(O)CF2NO2]) increases with temperature and decreases as the concentration of NO2 and the total pressure M increase. The yields of PFPO, based on the amount of C3F6 consumed, varied between 63 and 89% and those of CF3CF(NO2)CF2NO2 between 0.33 and 0.08%. Increasing the temperature, the yields of CF3C(O)CF2NO2 decreased from 0.04 to 0.01%. The reaction is homogenous and the consumption rate of perfluoropropene, −d[C3F6]/dt= k1[C3F6][NO2], is independent of the total pressure. The following mechanism is postulated to explain the experimental results: 1) C3F6 + NO2 → CF3C•FCF2NO2, 2) CF3C•FCF2NO2 → PFPO+NO, 3) CF3C•FCF2NO2 + NO2+M → CF3CF(NO2)CF2NO2+M, 4) CF3C•FCF2NO2 + NO2 → CF3C(O)CF2NO2+FNO. k1=(4.57±1.4)×106exp(−(15.44±1.2) kcal mol−1/RT) dm3mol−1s−1. The value of k2, the rate constant for the unimolecular dissociation of the radical CF3C•FCF2NO2, was found to be of order of 1014s−1.
