Abstract

FTIR smog chamber techniques were used to measure k(Cl + C ₂F₅CH₂OCH₃) = (2.52 ± 0.37) × 10^-11 and k(OH + C₂F₅CH ₂OCH₃) = (5.78 ± 1.02) × 10^-13 cm³ molecule^-1 s^-1 in 700 Torr of air diluent at 296 ± 1 K. The atmospheric lifetime of C₂F ₅CH₂OCH₃ is estimated to be 20 days. Reaction of chlorine atoms with C₂F₅CH₂OCH₃ proceeds 18 ± 2% at the -CH₂- group and 82 ± 2% at the -CH₃ group. Reaction of OH radicals with C₂F ₅CH₂OCH₃ proceeds 44 ± 5% at the -CH₂- group and 56 ± 5% at the -CH₃ group. The atmospheric fate of C₂F₅CH₂OCH₂O radicals is reaction with O₂ to give C₂F ₅CH₂OCHO. The atmospheric fate of C₂F ₅CH(O)OCH₃ radicals is C-C bond-cleavage to give C ₂F₅ radicals and CH₃OCHO (methyl formate). The infrared spectrum was recorded and used to estimate a global warming potential of 6 (100 year time horizon) for C₂F₅CH ₂OCH₃.
