The ketyl radical is formed when solutions of perfluorobenzophenone are photolyzed with u.v. light. The radical was identified by electron spin resonance (e.s.r.) studies of the effects of solvent, temperature, chemical exchange, and deuteration on the spectra. Solvent mixtures of cyclohexane and ethanol gave spectra which were very sensitive to the mole fraction of alcohol in the range 0–1%. An equilibrium constant for solvent molecule exchange has been deduced.
