Notes:
Results obtained from the photolysis of ketene with acetylene strongly support the formation of C3H3 radicals in the title reaction. Stationary state studies are interpreted in terms of the reaction \documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}$${\rm C}_3 {\rm H}_{\rm 4}^{\rm *} \buildrel3\over\rightarrow{\rm C}_3 {\rm H}_3^ \cdot + {\rm H}^ \cdot$$\end{document} with a rate constant (109.8 s-1) which is compared to RRKM predictions. In pulsed laser induced decomposition experiments, recombination products involving C3H3 have been detected (some for the first time) and their formation modeled using step (3) with the same rate constant.
