Decafluorobenzophenone triplets, which have a triplet energy very close to that of benzophenone, are much more reactive than benzophenone in quenching reactions that involve hydrogen transfer and/or charge transfer. An excellent correlation has been observed between the rate constants for charge transfer quenching and the oxidation potential of the substrate. In the case of 2-propanol, where the reactivity can be fully accounted for by hydrogen transfer, decafluorobenzophenone is 35 times more reactive than benzophenone. Pentafluorobenzophenone shows intermediate behaviour. Keywords: laser photolysis, benzophenones, triplet states, charge transfer, photoreduction.

An Fe(iii)–As(iii) complex was characterized by UV/Vis spectra and its laser flash photolysis via ligand-to-metal charge transfer resulted in the intermediate of Fe(ii)–As(iv).

The triplet energies of fumaronitrile and maleonitrile measured by laser flash photolysis technique using the Herkstroeter–Hammond method are both 59 ± 2 kcal mol−1. Our results show that these olefins are classical triplet energy acceptors for non-electron donating sensitizers. With electron donating sensitizers, quenching through a charge-transfer mechanism also occurs in benzene solution.

Transient absorption spectra have been detected after flash photolysis of iodine in a variety of solvents. There is some correlation between the wavelength of maximum absorption and the ionization potential of the solvent and the spectra are attributed to the charge transfer complexes between iodine atoms and the solvent which were predicted in part III. In the case of methyl iodide as chaperon a weak transient has also been observed in the vapour phase. The decay of the complex follows a second-order law and rate constants have been measured in six solvents. Values for the extinction coefficient are derived by assuming that the reaction is diffusion controlled. Equilibrium constants of complex formation have been measured in ethyl iodide and ethyl bromide.

The photochemistry of several methyl-substituted p-methoxy-β-phenylpropiophenones (1–5) has been examined by nanosecond laser flash photolysis using 337-nm laser excitation. The ketone triplets decay by intramolecular β-aryl quenching of the carbonyl in a well-known process that is believed to involve charge transfer. Surprisingly, methyl substitution at the β-methylene group, which is not a participant in the deactiviation mechanism, causes a dramatic decrease in the triplet lifetime; the effect is attributed to different conformational preferences in ketones 1–3 and is rationalized on the basis of MMX calculations. Methyl substitution in the β-aryl ring affects the ease of oxidation of this ring and as a result induces changes in the kinetics for intramolecular charge transfer. This conclusion is further supported by electrochemical studies of ketones 1, 4, and 5. Key words: laser flash photolysis, triplet ketones, intramolecular quenching, charge transfer.
