In this study, the mechanistic and kinetic analysis for reactions of CF3OCH(CF3)2 and CF3OCF2CF2H with OH radicals and Cl atoms have been performed at the CCSD(T)//B3LYP/6-311++G(d,p) level. Kinetic isotope effects for reactions CF3OCH(CF3)2/CF3OCD(CF3)2 and CF3OCF2CF2H/CF3OCF2CF2D with OH and Cl were estimated so as to provide the theoretical estimation for future laboratory investigation. All rate constants, computed by canonical variational transition state theory (CVT) with the small-curvature tunneling correction (SCT), are in reasonable agreement with the limited experimental data. Standard enthalpies of formation for the species were also calculated. Atmospheric lifetime and global warming potentials (GWPs) of the reaction species were estimated, the large lifetimes and GWPs show that the environmental impact of them cannot be ignored. The organic nitrates can be produced by the further oxidation of CF3OC(•)(CF3)2 and CF3OCF2CF2• in the presence of O2 and NO. The subsequent decomposition pathways of CF3OC(O•)(CF3)2 and CF3OCF2CF2O• radicals were studied in detail. The derived Arrhenius expressions for the rate coefficients over 230–350 K are: k T(1) = 5.00 × 10−24T3.57 exp(−849.73/T), k T(2) = 1.79 × 10−24T4.84 exp(−4262.65/T), kT(3) = 1.94 × 10−24 T4.18 exp(−884.26/T), and k T(4) = 9.44 × 10−28T5.25 exp(−913.45/T) cm3 molecule−1 s−1.

Due to their lack of effect on the ozone depletion, hydrofluoroethers are considered as potential candidates for third generation refrigerants. In the present work, the mechanisms and kinetics of reaction of the Cl atom with CF(3)CHFOCH(3) and CHF(2)CHFOCF(3) were investigated theoretically using quantum chemical methods and transition state theory. Four reaction pathways for the title reaction were explored. By using conventional transition state theory with Eckart tunneling correction, the rate constants of the title reaction were obtained over the temperature range 200-300 K. Kinetic calculations demonstrate that H-abstraction from the -CH(3) group in CF(3)CHFOCH(3) and H-abstraction from the -CHF2 group in CHF(2)CHFOCF(3) are major reaction pathways, with the barrier heights of the two paths calculated to be -1.04 and 4.33 kcal mol(-1), respectively. However, the contribution of H-abstraction from the -CHFO- group for the two reactions should also be taken into account with increased temperature. At 298 K, the calculated overall rate constants of the reaction of CHF(2)CHFOCF(3) with the Cl atom are 4.27 × 10(-15) cm(3) molecule(-1) s(-1), which is consistent with the experimental value of (1.2 ± 2.0) × 10(-15) cm(3) molecule(-1) s(-1).
