Abstract

In the γ-irradiation of dichloromaleic anhydride (DC1MA) in benzene solution, the first step of the reaction, analogous to photochemistry, is the formation of α-chloro-α-phenyl-maleic anhydride (CIPhMA). In contrast to photochemistry, where this intermediate is transformed into a cycloaddition product, a polymer is formed in radiolysis. The polymer consists of CIPhMA units as well as components resulting from benzene radiolysis.
