Popis: The effects of γ-radiolysis on adamantane, perdeuterated adamantane, diamantane, 1- and 2-chloroadamantane, 1- and 2-bromoadamantane, 1-cyanoadamantane, 1- and 2-adamantanol, 1- and 2-adamantylamine have been examined via electron spin resonance techniques, and the nature of the predominant species produced is discussed. Spin-scavenging experiments using 2-methyl-2-nitrosopropane have been used, together with previously reported Br2 scavenging experiments, to identify the nature of the predominant species produced when purified solid adamantane is subjected to radiolysis. Data indicate that this is the 1-adamantyl radical. A possible reason for the controversial nature of data on this subject reported previously by other investigators is given.
