✦ Synopsis
We have previously reported that the a-bromo-tert-butyl radical (I) is produced by the x-ir-1 radiation of isobutyl bromide in an adamantane matrix.
In view of a recent claim by Nelson and 2 Symons that the salne spectrum could also be obtained by the irradiation of tert-butyl bromide in adamantane, thereby suggesting that our identification of I was incorrect, we felt it necessary to investigate the epr spectrum of x-irradiated tert-butyl bromide in adamantane ourselves. 1 A sample of redistilled m-butyl bromide in adamantane prepared as previously described was x-irradiated for 30 minutes at 77' K and its epr spectrum was studied as a function of temp-0.
