Abstract
Abstract The transformations of isolated toluene molecules under X-ray radiolysis in solid noble gas matrices at 6 K were characterized by FTIR spectroscopy. It was found that the efficiency of the radiation-induced decomposition of toluene was generally comparable to that of benzene. Meanwhile, a remarkable matrix effect was observed: toluene is more stable than benzene in an argon matrix, whereas it becomes more sensitive in the case of xenon matrix. This result was ascribed to the increasing role of upper triplet excited states in a xenon matrix. In all the matrices two main radiolysis products observed at moderate absorbed doses were benzyl radical and 5-methylene-1,3-cyclohexadiene (MCHD). Benzyl radical predominates in all the cases, while the relative contribution of MCHD strongly decreases in the row Ar-Kr-Xe. On the basis of this comparison, the formation of MCHD was tentatively attributed to the rearrangement of excited primary toluene radical cations. Possible scheme of the radiation-induced processes is discussed.
