Abstract

The kinetics of gamma‐radiation‐induced free‐radical reactions in carbon tetrachloride solutions of ethanol and n‐pentanol were studied in the range of 0.05–0.80M and 25–170°C. The rate constant for the reaction (Formula Presented.) was found as (Formula Presented.) The activation energy is larger by 0.8 kcal/mol than for secondary alcohols, while the A1 factors are about the same.
