Preparation of radioactive chloramine-B by isotopic exchange with radioactive chlorine

The exchange between chloramine-B and radioactive chlorine has been carried out in various media. The exchange is slow in strong acid and very weak acid media. Its maximum is at pH 3.3. There is no exchange in alkaline media. Optimum conditions for the preparation of radiochloramine-B with high specific activity are reported. © 1986 Akadémiai Kiadó.
