Radiolysis of Aqueous Solutions Containing Nitric Oxide and Aliphatic Alcohols

Authors: T. W. Woodward, H. C. Sutton Aliphatic alcohols increase the yields of N2O observed in the radiolysis of NO solutions and are oxidized to the corresponding aldehyde in the process. The following reactions occur in addition to those previously suggested 1 for the NO radiolysis: OH+ROH → H2O+˙ROH ˙ROH+3NO → N2O+HNO2+R˙= 0(aldehyde) where R = Me, Et, i-Pr. https://doi.org/10.1039/TF9666200070

Pulse Radiolysis Study of Alcohols in Aqueous Solution

Authors: M. Simic, P. Neta, E. Hayon A detailed pulse radiolysis study of aqueous solutions of methanol, ethanol, isopropyl alcohol, n-, iso-, and t-butyl alcohols, neopentanol, and eyelohexanol has been carried out. Optical absorption spectra of some of the transients have been measured down to 210 nm. Similar spectra were obtained in liquid methanol, ethanol, and isopropyl alcohol. Absorption maxima…
