TLDR
In this article, the super-Fricke dosimeter was used as a secondary standard for the thiocyanate dosimeter in O2-saturated water and the results were improved to 3.47 ± 0.06.
Abstract
The thiocyanate dosimeter (10–2 mol dm–3 SCN– in O2-saturated water) has been standardised against the super-Fricke dosimeter (10–2 mol dm–3 FeII in O2-saturated 0.4 mol dm–3 H2SO4) using the hexacyanoferrate(II) dosimeter [5 × 10–3 mol dm–3 Fe(CN)64– in O2-saturated water] as a secondary standard. On the basis that G(FeIII)= 1.67 × 10–6 mol J–1 and IµFeIII= 220.4 m2 mol–1 at 304 nm and 25 °C in the super-Fricke dosimeter, we obtain GIµ[Fe(CN)63–]=(3.47 ± 0.06)× 10–5 m2 J–1 at 420 nm and GIµ(SCN)2˙–=(2.59 ± 0.05)× 10–4 m2 J–1 at 475 nm. These values remain unchanged when the solutions are saturated with air instead of O2 and are doubled in N2O-saturated solution.

Common intermediates in the OH-radical-induced oxidation of cyanide and formamide

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that in the absence of O2 less than half of radical 1 decays by disproportionation to produce cyanate and formamide, while in the presence of O 2 O 2 −− −−− − − − -decays by O 2−−-elimination.

Calculated and measured transient product yields in pulse radiolysis of aqueous solutions: Concentration dependence

TL;DR: In this paper, a pulse radiolysis of aqueous solution was modeled by using 54 equations for the reaction of water radio-lysis intermediates with carefully selected rate coefficients, and yields of products formed in the hydrated electron + solute and hydroxyl radical+solute reactions were calculated and compared with the measured yields in wide concentration range.

Gamma radiolysis of hydrophilic diglycolamide ligands in concentrated aqueous nitrate solution.

TL;DR: Overall, the radiolysis of hydrophilic DGAs in concentrated, aqueous nitrate solutions is significantly slower and less structurally sensitive than under pure water conditions, similar to their lipophilic analogs.

Dopamine quinone chemistry: a study of the influence of amide, amidine and guanidine substituents [-NH-CX-Y] on the mode of reaction

TL;DR: In contrast to the transient formation of spirocyclic products by other ortho-quinones derived from dopamine derivatives, e.g., , the product is stable and has been isolated and fully characterised.

Critical Review of rate constants for reactions of hydrated electrons, hydrogen atoms and hydroxyl radicals (⋅OH/⋅O− in Aqueous Solution

TL;DR: In this article, the rate constants for over 3500 reaction are tabulated, including reaction with molecules, ions and other radicals derived from inorganic and organic solutes, and the corresponding radical anions, ⋅O− and eaq−, have been critically pulse radiolysis, flash photolysis and other methods.

Yield for the scavenging of hydroxyl radicals in the radiolysis of nitrous oxide-saturated aqueous solutions

TL;DR: In this article, the thiocyanate dosimeter was calibrated against the Fricke system to obtain a value of 46,400 +-600 (molecules/100 eV) for the product of yield and extinction coefficient of (SCN)/sub 2/O-saturated solutions.

Track effects in radiation chemistry. Concentration dependence for the scavenging of hydroxyl by ferrocyanide in nitrous oxide-saturated aqueous solutions

TL;DR: In this paper, the radiation chemical yield for oxidation of ferrocyanide by OH produced in the fast electron radiolysis of N/sub 2/O-saturated aqueous solutions was found to increase from a low concentration limiting yield of 5.2 to values in excess of 6.7.
