Title: Study of the electron donor--acceptor properties of diamagnetic organic molecules via positronium reactions

Conference ·
OSTI ID:4407887

From 11th international symposium on free radicals; Berchtesgaden, F.R. Germany (4 Sep 1973). The results of a preliminary study of the interactions of positronium with nitrobenzene and ontho, meta, and para derivatives of nitrotoluene and dinitrobenzene in benzene solutions are reported. Distinct differences in the rate constants for the reaction of positronium with the organic molecules were observed for the various systems, and an attempt was made to correlate these changes to certain molecular parameters and to the effects of steric interactions in these molecules.
