Abstract
Methods of generation and characterization of radical cations in low t emperature matrices are briefly presented. Advantages of steady-state and pulse radiolysis in the application to studies of low barrier isom erization processes in radical cations are described. Unimolecular rad ical cation transformations such as valence isomerization, conformatio nal rotamerism and enolization studied by low temperature pulse radiol ysis are reviewed.
