摘要:
Monocrystals of glycine and β-alanine have been observed by electron spin resonance (ESR) after x-irradiation near 77 °K. The rate constants of the decay of one signal in each have been determined over the ranges 127 °–148 °K and 98 °–188 °K, respectively. Both obey first-order kinetics with activation energies of ∼7.0 and ∼2.6 kcal/mole, respectively, and pre-exponential factors of 6.4×108 and 15 Hz, respectively.
