Ionizing energy as an aid in exchange tritium labeling.

The tritium labeling of organic compounds by the Wilzbach technique-that is, by simple exposure of the compound to tritium gas-is greatly accelerated by the simultaneous exposure of the system to a silent electrical discharge. The incorporation of tritium into benzene was increased by a factor of about 10(4) without undue decomposition. Cobalt-60 gamma-rays were found to be far less useful for increasing the tritium incorporation.
