EFFICIENT TRITIUM LABELING WITH AN ELECTRIC DISCHARGE

Journal Article · · Nucleonics (U.S.) Ceased publication
OSTI ID:4172358

A method is described in which the rate of tritium labeling of organic compounds was increased by means of an electric discharge. Such tagging often takes only a few minutes although without the discharge it would take several days. The labeling procedure is followed by removal of labile tritium with a polar solvent. Subsequent purification involves multiple crystallizations, preferably from several solvent systems. A description is given for the purification procedures as well as procedures for determining the purity of the labeled compounds. (B.O.G.)
