The G-values of nitrogen from the gas-phase γ-radiolysis of the C3-hydrocarbons (propane, propylene, and cyclopropane) in the presence of nitrons oxide have been measured at the temperatures from −35 to 150 °C. The G-values increased with an increase in the pressure of N2O and were saturated at about 4 mol% of N2O. The saturated values, G(N2)max’s showed characteristic temperature dependences. In propane, they scarcely changed with the temperature and stayed at around 2 Ge. Here Ge is the G-value of electrons estimated from the W-value of the hydrocarbon. In propylene, the G(N2)max changed from Ge at −35 °C to about 2 Ge at 150 °C, while in cyclopropane it changed from Ge at −35 °C to 4.5 Ge at 100 °C. Possible reaction mechanisms to explain these results have been discussed.
