The radiolysis of ethanol. VI. Hydrogen precursors at −196°C

Abstract
Reactions of trapped (or solvated) electrons in solid ethanol have been studied. The following reactions occur at − 196 °C. [Formula: see text] [Formula: see text] [Formula: see text]The activation energy of reaction [6] is roughly 5 kcal/mole. Reaction [7] occurs with electrons that have not yet been trapped by the medium.Hydrogen atoms appear to be able to abstract from ethanol and to add to propylene at − 196 °C.
