Summary
A survey of the yields of methyl radicals from some 25 different aliphatic hydrocarbons was completed. Competition studies indicated little or no energy barrier to the reaction of radicals with iodine. Irradiation of liquid clohexane samples to which up to 1.0% isobutene was added resulted in the formation of isobutane and several new products in the C/sub 10/ region including tert-butylcyclohexane. Ethylene was utilized as a scavenger for intermediates in the radiolysis of cyclopentane. Studies by electron paramagnetic resonance of the hydrocarbon radicals at steady state during radiolysis of liquids are being continued. The initial stages of the chlorine atom induced polynnerization of acetylene were investigated. The formation of benzene in the radiolysis of acetylene was studied. The investigation of the radiolysis of cis-1,2,- dichloroethylene was continued. Studies of the use of tritium iodide as a radical scavenger were facilitated by the addition of a flow proportional counter to the exit side of the chromatographic equipment. The hydrogen formed in the irradiation of mixtures of benzene and perdeutero benzene with 30-Mev helium ions was found to have the same isotopic composition as that previously reported by Gorden and Burton for fast electron irradiations.
