The kinetics of gamma‐radiation induced free radicals reactions in carbon tetrachloride solutions of cyclohexane, cyclooctane and cyclododecane were studied in the range of 27–190°C. The activation energies found were in the order c C 6 H 12 > c C 12 H 24 > c C 8 H 16 , which was explained as due to their ring strain which has the same order. The following log k 1 was obtained using the known Arrhenius parameters for CCl 3 radical recombination:
