In the γ radiolysis of pure di-n-propyl ether at 296 K, G(n-propanol) = 2.5 ± 0.1. The propanol yield was reduced by the addition of an electron scavenger (SF6) or proton scavenger (C3H7NH2), but was not affected by the addition of hydrogen chloride or propylene. In the absence of additives the geminate neutralization reaction [7] R2OH+ + esolv− → ROH + R gave 1.8 G units of alcohol. The charge scavenging reactions of SF6 and C3H7NH2 were consistent with the nonhomogeneous kinetics model reported earlier. The optical absorbance of solvated electrons in di-n-propyl ether increased with wavelength up to 1.6 μ, the practical limit of the detector, at all temperatures in the liquid range, including the liquid supercooled to 140 K. (f.p. = 151 K). The kinetics of electron reactions could be measured by observing the absorption at 0.9 μ. The optical absorbance observed as a function of time t at all temperatures was consistent with the kinetics model and had the general form: absorbance = b(t−1/2 + c)e−kt, where b is a proportionality constant, c is related to the free ion yield and k is a first order decay constant that describes the decay of the solvated electron free ions. At 273 K, k(esolv− + SF6) = 4.5 × 1010 M−1 s−1 and the activation energy is 3.2 ± 0.3 kcal/mol.

The spectrum, yield, and kinetics of solvated electrons in hexamethylphosphoric triamide were investigated by the pulse radiolysis method. The optical absorption band is in the infrared with a maximum at 2200 ± 100 nm. The molar absorptivity at this maximum is (3.2 ± 0.5) × 104 M−1 cm−1, and the oscillator strength for the transition is estimated to be f = 0.7 ± 0.2. A free ion yield of G(es−) = 2.3 + 0.4 solvated electrons/100 eV was determined from the observed yields of anthracene and pyrene radical anions formed by electron attachment.Kinetic studies provided values of the rate constants for the reaction of solvated electrons with anthracene and N2O. The decay mechanism of the solvated electrons in the absence of added solutes was found to be complex, and the half-life (in the range of 2 to 50 μs) was dependent on experimental conditions. A second transient species, absorbing at wavelengths below 500 nm, was observed but not identified. In solutions containing bromide ion the species Br2− was observed. The pulse radiolysis of stable solutions of es−, formed by dissolving sodium metal in HMPA, is also reported.
