Liquid xenon is a useful inert solvent for esr studies of reactive free radicals; the g-factors of many types of radical are not the same in xenon as in normal solvents. ... Esr studies of transient free radicals in fluid solution are often hampered by the lack of a sufficiently unreactive solvent. Rentzepis and Douglassl have recently reported the ir, uv, and nmr spectra of a number of organic compounds dissolved in liquid xenon and we were prompted to investigate the use- fulness of this ...
