Abstract

Thermal electron attachment rate constants for CH₂ClCHBrCH₃ and CH₂ClCH₂CH₂Br have been measured using electron swarm method. Corresponding rate constants are equal to and  cm³ molec^-1 s^-1, respectively. Parallely, negative ion mass spectra of these compounds as well as CH₂FCH₂Br, CH₂ClCH₂Br, CH₂BrCH₂Br and CF₃CHClBr has been measured with negative ion mass spectrometry method. The rate constants have been compared with the negative ion mass spectra.
