Abstract The multinucleon transfer (MNT) process has been proposed as a promising approach to produce neutron-rich superheavy nuclei (SHN). MNT reactions based on the radioactive targets 249 Cf, 254 Es, and 257 Fm are investigated within the framework of the improved version of a dinuclear system (DNS-sysu) model. The MNT reaction 238 U + 238 U was studied extensively as a promising candidate for producing SHN. However, based on the calculated cross-sections, it was found that there is little possibility to produce SHN in the reaction 238 U + 238 U. In turn, the production of SHN in reactions with radioactive targets is likely.
