The relative rate method was used to determine the rate constant for the reaction of heptafluorobut-1-ene (CF2=CFCF2CF2H) with chlorine atoms in air. A mercury UV lamp was used to generate atomic chlorine, which initiated chemistry monitored by FTIR spectroscopy. Ethane was used as the reference compound for kinetic studies. Oxidation of heptafluorobut-1-ene initiated by a chlorine atom creates carbonyl difluoride (CF2=O) and 2,2,3,3 tetrafluoropropanoyl fluoride (O=CFCF2CF2H) as the major products. Anharmonic frequency calculations allowing for several low-energy conformations of 1,1,2,3,3,4,4 heptafluorobut-1-ene and 2,2,3,3 tetrafluoropropanoyl fluoride, based on density functional theory, are in good accord with measurements. The global warming potentials of these two molecules were calculated from the measured IR spectra and estimated atmospheric lifetimes and found to be small, less than 1.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/molecules27030647","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,1,19]],"date-time":"2022-01-19T21:01:51Z","timestamp":1642626111000},"page":"647","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Gas-Phase Chemistry of 1,1,2,3,3,4,4-Heptafluorobut-1-ene Initiated by Chlorine Atoms"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"27","author":[{"given":"Ramesh","family":"Sapkota","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Chemistry, University of North Texas, 1155 Union Circle, #305070, Denton, TX 76203, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Paul","family":"Marshall","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Center for Advanced Scientific Computing and Modeling, University of North Texas, 1155 Union Circle, #305070, Denton, TX 76203, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,1,19]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"135","DOI":"10.1016\/j.chemosphere.2014.06.092","article-title":"Atmospheric chemistry of short-chain haloolefins: Photochemical ozone creation potentials (POCPs), global warming potentials (GWPs), and ozone depletion potentials (ODPs)","volume":"129","author":"Wallington","year":"2015","journal-title":"Chemosphere"},{"key":"ref_2","unstructured":"Burkholder, J.B., Sander, S.P., Abbatt, J., Barker, J.R., Cappa, C., Crounse, J.D., Dibble, T.S., Huie, R.E., Kolb, C.E., and Kurylo, M.J.
