Radiolysis of Pyrimidines in Aqueous Solutions

Authors: G. A. Infante, P. Jirathana, J. H. Fendler, E. J. Fendler Product yields in the reaction of e;,, .H, -OH and CI,. with thymine and those in the reaction of e^(-)aq and .OH/O-. with thymine- have been determined quantitatively in 60-co-irradiated aqueous thymine solutions in the presence of suitable scavengers. Good material balances between G(- thymine) and G(total products)…
