Abstract

The polyynes in heptane solution were γ‐radiolyzed at a total dose of 150, 300 and 600 kGy. After radiolysis the products were analyzed by electronic absorption spectroscopy, by HPLC (liquid chromatography) and by FT‐IR spectroscopy. Even at 150 kGy the polyynes disappear completely from the solution and the chromatographic analysis shows that the acetylenic chains undergo fragmentation, addition and crosslinking reactions with other chains and with solvent. The oxidative interference from air has been detected by FT‐IR.
