Methyl radical reactions with matrix molecules in glasses C2H50H, (CH20H)z, n-and i-C3H70H, n-and i-C4HsOH, n-and i-CSHIlOH, C~DSOH, and i-C:+D70D, and the reactions of C:2H5, C3H7, C4H9, C :~H I~ with methanol glasses have been studied. Alkyl radicals were produced by photolysis of diphenylamine-alkylhalide-alcohol mixtures using ultraviolet light.In all cases the alkyl radical decay follows the law c = c g exp(-h 4). The 4 law should not be associated with alkyl radical diffusion in a matrix. A method of processing the kinetics of those reactions in which one paramagnetic species changes into another with the total concentration being constant and the electron spin resonance spectra of both species overlapping, is described.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
