Abstract

The stable radiolysis products of 1-chlorobutane (1-CB), 1-chlorobutene-2 (1-CB-2), 1-chloropropane (1-CP), 2-chloropropane (2-CP) and 1,3-dichloropropane (1,3-DCP) gamma-irradiated in an oxygen-free atmosphere have been investigated. The pure radiolysis products were separated by preparative gas chromatography and identified by NMR and mass spectroscopy as well as qualitative gas chromatography. The compounds formed were determined by potentiometric analysis and quantitative gas chromatography. From 1-CB we have obtained in the gas phase: HCl, H2, butane; in the liquid phase: 2-chlorobutane, 1,3-dichlorobutane and a mixture of oligomers of the initial compound (dimer and trimer). We have not recorded H2 in 1-CB-2. The main gaseous products of radiolysis of 1-CP are HCl and H2. Radiation yield of isomerization was determined. From 2-CP we have obtained in the gas phase: HCl and H2; in the liquid phase: 2,2-dichloropropane and a mixture of oligomers of the initial compound (dimers and trimers). From 1,3-DCP we have found in the gas phase: HCl and H2; in the liquid phase: 1-CP, 2-CP, 1,2-DCP and oligomers. Preliminary schemes for the formation of stable products are proposed.
