摘要:
The question whether excited triplet states of quinones react with a number of substrates such as alcohols, phenols, and amines, via electron transfer mechanism has attracted much attention in recent years. The existence of some triplet exciplex was postulated by Kobashi et al1in their study of hydrogen atom abstraction by p-chloranil using laser flash spectrocopic detection. In some recent e.s.r. and CIDEP studies2,3, however, there is no compelling evidence that the photoreduction of quinones and benzophenones undergoes an initial electron transfer mechanism. It should be noted that most of the e.s.r. studies of quinone radical anions had been carried out in polar solvents. In flash photolysis studies some evidence has indeed been obtained1,4in which the efficiency of hydrogen abstraction by excited triplet quinones increases with solvent polarity and therefore it is possible that the initial primary process involves electron transfer followed immediately by proton transfer. On the other hand, we
