The oxidation of anthranilic acid (ortho-aminobenzoic acid, ANA) and para-aminobenzoic acid (PABA) by •OH, N₃ • and O•⁻ in basic solution was studied by pulse radiolysis. The kinetic and spectroscopic characteristics of the intermediate transients were determined. For ANA the site attack of the OH radicals was established to be ∼50% on the -NH₂ moiety and ∼50% on the aromatic ring with an overall rate constant k(•OH+ANA)=(5.5×10⁹) dm³mol⁻¹s⁻¹. The rate constant of PABA was k(•OH+PABA)=8×10⁹dm³mol⁻¹s⁻¹. The OH-adducts of both compounds showed a first order decay of 0.8×10⁵ and 1.2×10⁵s⁻¹, respectively, whereby the corresponding anilino-radicals were formed. The rate constant of ANA with solvated electrons was k(e⁻ ₐq+ANA)=2.9×10⁹dm³mol⁻¹s⁻¹. The radiation induced decomposition of both substrates was studied by gamma radiolysis as a function of the absorbed dose. They exhibited a distinct radiation resistance, the initial degradation yields were ∼0.16μmolJ⁻¹, i.e. only 28% of the •OH radicals contributed to their decomposition. The hydroxylation process was of minor importance, the yield of hydroxylated aminobenzoic acids was≤0.01μmolJ⁻¹.
