Method of preparation of tritiated benzene for measuring in hydrology low level tritium in a liquid scintillator; Methode de preparation de benzene tritie pour la mesure par scintillation en hydrologie de faibles teneurs en tritium

Abstract

It is given a preliminary account of the preparation of tritiated benzene by decarboxylation of calcium mellitate (calcium benzene-hexa-carboxylate) at 500 deg C by an excess of tritiated barium or calcium hydroxide yield is 64-72 pour cent based on used calcium mellitate. Benzene obtained after a single distillation is free from seriously quenching impurities. It is obtained 10-15 g benzene per batch. It remains to determine the occurrence of an isotope effect during the reaction. Various improvements and modifications are still necessary to increase the size of the sample to be treated.
