The cyclic voltammograms of some binuclear copper(II) compounds with binucleating ligands where two molecules of tridentate ligand, N, N -bis(benzimidazol-2-ylmethyl)amine are linked by several alkyl chains, were measured under both argon and dioxygen. The results demonstrate that the binuclear copper(I) species produced by electrochemical reduction exhibit high reactivity towards dioxygen, while the reaction of the corresponding mononuclear species with oxygen is very slow. Thin-layer coulometry ([binuclear copper(I)]/[O2] = 0.47 - 10.6) and thin-layer cyclic voltammetry ([binuclear copper(I)]/[O2] = 4.3 - 10.6 ) revealed that two molecules of the binuclear copper(I) species react with one molecule of dioxygen.

In this work a selection of octasubstituted phthalocyaninato zinc complexes were synthesized and their photochemistry studied. The substituents included cholesterol (3a), estrone (3b), naphthol (3c) and phenoxy groups substituted with CH3 (3d), C ( CH 3)3 (at two positions, 3e), C ( CH 3)3 (3f), NO2 (3g), NH 2 (3h), COH (3i), COOH (3j), and H (3k). In general, complexes containing electron-donating groups attached to the phenoxy ring (e.g. 3e and 3f) were found to be photochemically unstable with photobleaching quantum yields of the order of 10-3. In the presence of electron-withdrawing groups (3g, 3i, and 3j) the photobleaching quantum yields were of the order of 10-6 to 10-5. Singlet oxygen quantum yields (ΦΔ) ranged from 0.01 to 0.73. The lowest ΦΔ was observed for the highly aggregated complex 3c. All the complexes showed aggregation at high concentrations. Electrochemical reduction using a thin-layer spectroelectrochemistry cell showed that the complexes become more monomeric following reduction.

In this form of electron microscopy, photoelectrons emitted from a metal by ultraviolet radiation are accelerated and imaged onto a fluorescent screen by conventional electron optics. image contrast is determined by spatial variations in the intensity of the photoemission. The dominant source of contrast is due to changes in the photoelectric work function, between surfaces of different crystalline orientation, or different chemical composition. Topographical variations produce a relatively weak contrast due to shadowing and edge effects.Since the photoelectrons originate from the surface layers (e.g. ∼5-10 nm for metals), photoelectron microscopy is surface sensitive. Thus to see the microstructure of a metal the thin layer (∼3 nm) of surface oxide must be removed, either by ion bombardment or by thermal decomposition in the vacuum of the microscope.
