Comments: The UV absorption spectra of CF3CHO, C2F5CHO, C3F7CHO, C4F9CHO, CF3CH2CHO, and C6F13CH2CHO were recorded over 
the range 225-400 nm at 249-297 K. There was no discernible (<5%) effect of temperature on the UV spectra.
Quantum yield at 254 nm is 0.60 ± 0.09 (C4F9CHO). The Quantum yield at 308 nm is 0.08 ± 0.02 (C4F9CHO).
