REDOX REACTION OF MU-O IN WATER DETERMINED BY THE CHEMICAL-SHIFT

The chemical shift of mu-O iii water, ice and in aqueous hydrogen pero xide (H2O2) was examined using mu-O resonance. Two distinct signals ar e obtained in water and ice. Using mu+ resonance signal as a standard, the observed shifts deltag are -7.0x10(-4) (signal A) and -12.1x10(-4 ) (signal B) respectively. The intensity of the two fractions are almo st equivalent in water; however, iii ice, the intensity of signal B de creases with increase of signal A. After the addition of hydrogen pero xide to the water signal B disappears, A increases, and the total ampl itude is increased.
