Abstract
Abstract Tris(trifluoromethyl)thallium, Tl(CF3)3, as well as other less defined trifluoromethyl-Group III compounds have been prepared for the first time by condensing metal atoms with trifluoromethyl radicals on a cryogenic surface. The unusually reactive nature of several of the products necessitated that a very unique and elaborate metal-atom reactor be designed and constructed which would allow the isolation of the products at sub-ambient conditions.
