Description

N,N-Dimethylformamide (DMF) and N,N-dimethylacetamide (DMA) were irradiated with γ-rays and accelerated electrons (linac) in the liquid phase at different temperatures. Qualitative and quantitative analysis of the radiolysis products have been made by capillary GC. Effects of irradiation temperature and dose rate have revealed secondary mechanisms for the formation of the parent radicals. Irradiation in presence of N2O tends to reveal tonic reactions for the immediate formation of parent radicals. (author)
