The radical yields of C2H5• and CCl3• observed by electron spin resonance of CCl4 + C2H5I mixtures irradiated by γ rays at 77°K are compared with yields of HCl, I2, and HI measured after thawing. The dissociative capture of thermalized electrons by CCl4 is extremely effective and accounts for most of the observed radicals. The difference between yields of HCl and CCl3• results from charge transfer from C2H5I+ to CCl3•. The formation of iodine proceeds both from neutralization processes of Cl− ions with positive ions formed from C2H5I, and from ion–molecule reactions.
