Abstract
It has been found that methylpropylketone and other higher ketones are synthetized with relatively high G values by gamma-ray irradiation on mixtures of acetadehyde and propylene at room temperature, and that the reaction proceeds by a chain mechanism, with acetyl radical produced thereby as the initiator.Keywords
