Abstract Fremy's salt, ON(SO 3 ) 2 2− , was irradiated with γ‐rays in deaerated alkaline aqueous solutions in the presence of NO 3 − , N 2 O. In the presence of N 2 O an increase of the G(‐ON(SO 3 ) 2 2− = G OH + H + e aqfrom 6.1 to about 6.7 was observed within a limited range of concentration, while with NO 3 − the change is gradual. This is consistent with NO 2 and OH produced, respectively, in the reaction of e aq − with Fremy's salt, taking place in one‐electron‐equivalent processes, and with the assumption that pairs of radicals may originate from water molecules.
