Neutralization processes of ions in radiolysis of ethane or ethylene + sulfur hexafluoride systems lead to the formation of the SF 5 • radical. Compounds of the general formula RSF 5 are formed as a result of recombination reactions with hydrocarbon radicals. In the mixture ethane +0.3% sulphur hexafluoride the radiochemical yield of SF 5 • is [Formula: see text] The presence of ammonia decreases [Formula: see text] to ca. 0.2, suggesting that the neutralization process of NH 4 + (NH 3 ) n with SF 6 − ions follows some unknown path. In the present work some reactions of the SF 5 • radical are studied. Preliminary results indicate that the presence of SF 6 influences very little, if at all, the yield of atomic hydrogen.
