Notes:
Metastable transitions in the mass spectra of six fluoroethylenes are reported. In several cases in which HF is the neutral species lost, 0.4 to 0.7 eV of kinetic energy is liberated. In two fragmentations, it is shown that the kinetic energy release is only about half the minimum energy of activation of the back reaction calculated from thermochemical data. Evidence is presented to support the view that in some cases at least, fragmentation occurs from two or more electronic states of the molecular ion.
