Abstract
ArF laser photolysis of liquid hexafluorobenzene affords a number of a romatic fluorocarbons, graphitic carbon and a fluorine containing poly meric C/F material. The preponderance of decafluorobiphenyl among the perfluoroaromatic products reveals the importance of the pentafluoroph enyl radical combinations in the initial stages of photolysis. The C/F material is judged to arise from polymerization of fluoroalkyne trans ients. The graphite formation represents a unique mode of photolytic l iquid-phase graphitization of perfluoroaromatic compounds.
