The gas-phase reaction of the CF<sub>3</sub> radical with thiophene
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The reaction of CF3 radicals, generated by photolysis of CF3I or hexafluoroacetone with thiophene, was studied in the gas phase at 25 °C. At conversion of thiophene less than 20%, monosubstituted CF3-thiophenes were found as the main reaction products, in addition to CF3H, C2F6, and monosubstituted dihydro-CF3-thiophene, the latter in very low proportion. An isomeric mixture of 2- and 3-CF3-thiophene was obtained in a ratio of about 16, independent of the radical source used (CF3I or hexafluoroacetone) to produce the CF3 radicals. A plausible mechanism that accounts for the observed products is proposed, and the reactivity of thiophene toward the CF3 radical at 25 °C was determined as kadd/kc1/2 = 106 ± 4 cm3/2 mol–1/2 s–1/2.Key words: thiophene, trifluoromethyl radical, reaction mechanism, reactivity.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
