The yields of hydrogen, formaldehyde, ethylene glycol, methane, and carbon monoxide from the radiolysis of methanol vapor were measured and also those of H/sub 2/ and HD from CH/sub 3/OD. These were correlated with the ions observed in the mass spectra. Benzene decreases the yields of hydrogen and formaldehyde and the effect is attributed partly to the scavenging of hydrogen atoms and partly to deactivation of an excited state of methanol which is produced by ion neutralization. The yields from the xenonsensitized radiolysis of methanol are reasonably consistent with the assumption of charge transfer from Xe/sup +/ to methanol. (auth)
