In radical rearrangements, the migrating groups are those that can accommodate electrons in a tt system (vinyl, aryl, carbonyl) or atoms that can expand their valence shell, i.e., all halogens but fluorine. Hydrogen and alkyl do not migrate to... 

Evidence for the solvated electron e (aq) can be obtained reaction of sodium vapour with ice in the complete absence of air at 273 K gives a blue colour (cf. the reaction of sodium with liquid ammonia, p. 126). Magnesium, zinc and iron react with steam at elevated temperatures to yield hydrogen, and a few metals, in the presence of air, form a surface layer of oxide or hydroxide, for example iron, lead and aluminium. These reactions are more fully considered under the respective metals. Water is not easily oxidised but fluorine and chlorine are both capable of liberating oxygen ... 

Many of the reactions of halogens can be considered as either oxidation or displacement reactions the redox potentials (Table 11.2) give a clear indication of their relative oxidising power in aqueous solution. Fluorine, chlorine and bromine have the ability to displace hydrogen from hydrocarbons, but in addition each halogen is able to displace other elements which are less electronegative than itself. Thus fluorine can displace all the other halogens from both ionic and covalent compounds, for example...

The F H- H — H —> F—H + H reaction is a common example of a reaction easily studied by classical trajectory analysis. The potential surface we are interested in is that for FH2. This potential surface may have many extrema. One of them corresponds to an isolated Fluorine atom and a stable H2 molecule these are the reactants. Another extremum of the surface corresponds to an isolated hydrogen atom and the stable H-Fmolecule these are the products. Depending on how the potential surface was obtained there may or may not be an extremum corresponding to stable H2F, but at the least you would expect an extremum corresponding to the transition state of the reaction being considered.

Substitution of fluorine for hydrogen in an organic compound has a profound influence on the compound s chemical and physical properties. Several factors that are characteristic of fluorine and that underHe the observed effects are the large electronegativity of fluorine, its small size, the low degree of polarizabiHty of the carbon—fluorine bond and the weak intermolecular forces. These effects are illustrated by the comparisons of properties of fluorocarbons to chlorocarbons and hydrocarbons in Tables 1 and 2. 

Unlike other synthetic polymers, PVDF has a wealth of polymorphs at least four chain conformations are known and a fifth has been suggested (119). The four known distinct forms or phases are alpha (II), beta (I), gamma (III), and delta (IV). The most common a-phase is the trans-gauche (tgtg ) chain conformation placing hydrogen and fluorine atoms alternately on each side of the chain (120,121). It forms during polymerization and crystallizes from the melt at all temperatures (122,123). The other forms have also been well characterized (124—128). The density of the a polymorph crystals is 1.92 g/cm and that of the P polymorph crystals 1.97 g/cm (129) the density of amorphous PVDF is 1.68 g/cm (130). 

The catalyst for the second stage is also a bifimctional catalyst containing hydrogenating and acidic components. Metals such as nickel, molybdenum, tungsten, or palladium are used in various combinations and dispersed on sofid acidic supports such as synthetic amorphous or crystalline sihca—alumina, eg, zeofites. These supports contain strongly acidic sites and sometimes are enhanced by the incorporation of a small amount of fluorine. 

If 90 is added to the designated R number, the resulting single digits individually reflect, in sequential order, the number of carbon, hydrogen, and fluorine atoms present, respectively. Chlorine is deterrnined by difference, ie, the carbon valency of 4 minus number of H and F atoms. For example, R-12 12 + 90 = 102, indicating 1 carbon, 0 hydrogen, 2 fluorine, and 2 chlorine atoms by difference. 

The tetrahedrally bonded materials, such as Si and Ge, possess only positional disorder however, materials of this type exhibit high density of defect states (DOS). It is only with the addition of elements such as hydrogen and/or a halogen, typically fluorine, that the DOS is reduced to a point such that electronic device appHcations emerge. These materials contain up to - 10 atomic % hydrogen, commonly called hydrogenated amorphous siHcon (i -Si H). 

I iL-un 12 (CCljFj) which is now banned by the ozone protection treaty. Also used is Dichloro-difluoromethane, Freon 22 (CHClFj), and chloro-difluoromethane. Several analogous compounds containing carbon, fluorine, chlorine, and sometimes hydrogen are available.
