    Characterization of the 4­oxo­2,2,6,6­tetramethylpiperidinooxy dosimeter for


    in situ radiolysis electron spin resonance studies.

    The stable free radical 4­oxo­2,2,6,6­tetramethylpiperidinooxy (2,2,6,6­tetram


    ethylpiperidone­N­oxyl, TEMPONE) in nitrous oxide­saturated aqueous formate


    solution has been shown to be a quantitative dosimeter for in situ radiolysis


    electron spin resonance (ESR) studies. The bleach of the TEMPONE ESR signal


    is proportional to the absorbed dose in steady­state


    radiolysis/field-modulation and in pulse radiolysis/time­resolved studies.


    The G value for consumption of TEMPONE in nitrogen­deoxygenated solution is


    5.3 (molecules per 100 eV), while the value in nitrous oxide­saturated


    solution is 6.0. Measurement of the radiolytically produced yield of carbon


    dioxide shows that the product of reaction of carbon dioxide radical anion


    with TEMPONE gives the corresponding hydroxylamine. The stability of the


    integrated intensity of the TEMPONE ESR bleach has been evaluated in the


    presence and absence of oxygen and found to be stable for hours. The ESR


    linewidth of TEMPONE solutions irradiated under anoxic conditions was


    constant in the postirradiation period. However, when oxygen was added


    postirradiation, the oxygen­broadened ESR linewidth decreased slowly toward


    the width observed in anoxic media, indicating consumption of dioxygen by,


    with concomitant production of, diamagnetic species in solution.
