N2 - Rate constant ratios of the reactions of CF3O radicals with a number of hydrocarbons have been determined at 298 ± 2 K and atmospheric pressure using a relative rate method. Using a previously determined value k(CF3O+C2H6) = 1.2×10-12 cm3 molecule-1 s-1 these rate constant ratios provide estimates of the rate constants: k(CF3O+CH4) = (1.2±0.1)×10-14, k(CF3O+c-C3H6) = (3.6±0.2)×10-13, k(CF3O+C3H8) = (4.7±0.7)×10-12, k(CF3O+(CH3)3CH) = (7.2±0.5)×10-12, k(CF3O+C2H4) = (3.0±0.1)×10-11 and k(CF3O+C6H6) = (3.6±0.1)×10-11 cm3 molecule-1 s-1. The importance of the reactions of CF3O radicals with hydrocarbons under atmospheric conditions is discussed.
