A comparative study of the gas-phase interaction of methyltrichloro derivatives of carbon, silicon and germanium (CH3MCl3 where M = C, Si and Ge) with sulfur hexafluoride either excited by a cw-CO2 laser radiation or under conventional static pyrolytic conditions is reported. 1,1,1-Trichloroethane and methyltrichlorogermane do not react with SF6 under laser irradiation and undergo their decomposition leading to the same products as afforded by heating: CH3CCl3 yields Cl2C=CH2 and HCl, and CH3GeCl3 gives HGeCl3 along with CH4 and C2H2. Mixtures of methyltrichlorosilane and SF6 afford under the both conditions products of the CH3SiCl3 decomposition -CH4, C2H2, HCl and SiCl4 and products of the CH3SiCl3-SF6 reaction -SiF4, SCF2 and CS2. Possible reasons for the different reactivity of CH3MCl3 compounds toward SF6 are briefly discussed. The decompositions of CH3GeCl3 to HGeCl3 offers new way for the preparation of the latter compound.

The CO2 cw laser induced interaction of sulfur hexafluoride with chlorine, silicon tetrachloride, trichlorosilane, and methyltrichlorosilane in a glass reaction vessel has been investigated. The reaction of SF6 with glass surface yielding silicon tetrafluoride and thionyl fluoride was observed. It is inhibited by the products and its rate increases with growing initial pressure (0.6-5.3 kPa) of SF6. Presumed vibrationally excited or dissociated SF6 undergoes the same reaction in the presence of chlorine and silicon tetrachloride, too. The reaction is suppressed by the addition of trichlorosilane and methyltrichlorosilane; in these cases SiF4, SiCl4 and HCl, or SiF4, SiCl4, HCl, acetylene and carbon disulfide are formed. The products indicate a non-sensitizing action of SF6 and a specific reaction channel for the formation of CS2 not attainable by pyrolysis.

The cw-CO2 laser-induced gas phase decomposition of hexafluoroacetone sensitized with sulfur hexafluoride (both 0.7-5.2 kPa) affords, besides perfluorinated hydrocarbons and minor amounts of trifluoroacetyl fluoride, carbonyl fluoride the formation of that obeys first-order kinetics and is favored with higher SF6 content.
