Abstract
Abstract In the investigation of the radiolysis of 1-bromoadamantane, three gaseous and six solid products were observed as a function of total dose. Although the same products were found in both the α- and β-phases of solid 1-bromo-adamantane, the G -values of these products were markedly different in the two phases, e.g. an efficient abstraction reaction for the formation of HBr in the β-phase was found to be absent in the α-phase. The results obtained in this study are discussed in terms of mechanisms based on the diffusional mobility of the reactive intermediates in the two mesophases, with the diffusional mobility of the reactive intermediates in the two mesophases being related to the entropy release in the formation of each mesophase.
