RADIATION DOSE AND IODINE SCAVENGER EFFECTS ON RECOIL C$sup 11$ REACTIONS IN CYCLOHEXANE
Studies were made on the reaction between C/sup 11/ and cyclohexane in which the ( gamma ,n) reaction was used as the method of activation. The relative yields of gaseous products were determined as a function of the radiation dose and of the concentration of iodine dissolved in the cyclohexane. The results show that radioinduced portions of the yields of CH/sub 4/, C/sub 2/H/ sub 4/ + C/sub 2/H/sub 6/, and C/sub 3/H/sub 6/ are removed by iodine and hence involve s pecies that react with iodine. The portion of yields produced at zero dose or in the presence of iodine was considered as the true hot-atom yield, resulting from the fact that the C/sup 11/ fragment has energy above that of its surroundings. Ion-molecule reactions were eliminated. The various products appeared to be formed predominantly by reactions of the recoiling fragment with the molecules of cyclohexane. (P.C.H.)
