The decay kinetics of the free radicals produced by {gamma}-irradiation of single crystals of organic dicarboxylic acids is studied at hydrostatic pressures up to 200 MPa. Correlation is established between the reaction's activation parameters (V{sup *} and E{sup *}) and the crystals macrocharacteristics - the compressibility and thermal expansion coefficients. A common equation is proposed to describe the variation of the radical decay rate constant with temperature and pressure in malonic, succinic, adipic, glutaric, suberic, and sebacic acids.
