The photochemistry in methanol of the esters 12a–d has been studied in order to determine the importance of internal return of both ion pair and radical pair intermediates. The efficiency of internal return, determined by monitoring 18O exchange between the alcohol and carbonyl oxygens, was shown to be substituent dependent, varying from approximately 10% for the 4,7-dimethoxy substrate to nearly 50% for the 4-cyano case. The corresponding ground state solvolysis reactions gave about 10% internal return and, within experimental error, were substituent independent. Internal return was also examined by racemization of the chiral center in 12a and 12d. In summary, these combined results reveal that internal return probably occurs mainly through a contact (not solvent-separated) radical pair. More important, internal return has little effect on previously calculated electron transfer rate constants for converting the radical pair to the ion pair. Therefore, the previously reported Marcus' correlations are valid. Keywords: photochemistry of benzylic esters, internal return, photosolvolysis, electron transfer, radical pairs.
