Conversion of ·OH radicals into O– ions on cooling: a radiation–e.s.r. study
Abstract
When hydroxyl radicals, formed in ice or various aqueous systems by ionizing radiation, are cooled from ca. 30 to 4 K they are extensively converted into O– ions, as judged by e.s.r. spectroscopy, the conversion being almost complete for ·OD in D2O.
