Pulse radiolysis of hexamethylphosphoric triamide
Abstract
The pulse radiolysis of pure or an NaBr solution of hexamethylphosphoric triamide (HMPT)(saturated either with Ar or N2O) suggests that the transient with a maximum absorption at 600 nm is due to a bromine atom charge-transfer complex giving an ionization potential for HMPT of 8·1 eV and also that the u.v. absorption is associated with an excited state of HMPT.
