Abstract
The influence of structurally different dihydric phenols on the radical reactions of hexane in deaerated solutions under γ-irradiation was studied. It was found that 4-tert-butylpyrocatechol (I), 3,5-diisopropylpyrocatechol (II), 2,5-di-tert-butylhydroquinone (III), and 4,6-di-tert-butylresorcinol (IV) effectively inhibited the formation of hexyl radical combination products. Using the chromatography–mass spectrometry technique, it was shown that the adducts of alkyl radicals with I–III have the structure of a monoalkyl ether. Phenol IV gave a mixture of dimers with O- and C-alkylation products.
