Abstract
The reactions of recoil38Cl atoms produced through the37Cl(n,γ)38Cl process in the CF3Cl−C2H4 gas phase are described in this work. The CF3Cl is a chlorine source as well as moderator. Scavengers, such as O2 and H2S, were added to the system to discriminate the reactions induced by energetic and/or thermal chlorine atoms. The radioactive38Cl-labeled products were separated using gas-chromatogarphic technique followed by an external proportional counter for quantitative determination of the product yeids. The mechanisms of the chemical reactions are predicted to account for the formation of these organic compounds.
