Abstract

AbstractThe reactions of recoil 11C atoms with liquid C6H6 result in the production of 11C‐labelled cycloheptatriene (CHT) and toluene in equal amounts of approximately 3%. From the effect of O2 on the product yields it is concluded that recoil labelling proceeds via both singlet and triplet 11CH2 intermediates, whereas 11CH may also contribute specifically to the formation of C6H5CH3. Addition of H2S increases the [11C]C6H5CH3 yield by ca. 5%, probably due to reactions of triplet phenyl‐carbene (C6H5CH). The reactions of singlet CH2, produced via the photolysis of CH2N2, with liquid C6H6 were also investigated in the presence of N2, O2 and I2.
