Influence of diluent on radiolysis of amides in organic solution

摘要

The radiolytic behavior of N,N,N',N'-tetraoctyldiglycolamide,N,N'-dimethyl-N,/N'-dioctyl-2-(3'-oxapentadecyrhna-lonamide,and N,N-dioctylhexanamide in n-dodecane was investigated by irradiation with gamma-rays and electron pulses.The results showed n-dodecane has a sensitization effect on the radiolysis of these amides,owing mainly to a charge transfer from radical cations of n-dodecane to the amide molecules in the primary process observed in pulse radiolysis.This result was supported by the difference in the ionization potentials between n-dodecane and these amides.
