The use of the catalyst [Formula: see text] in the reduction of the ethylenic system of styryl ketones by 1-phenylethanol permits the hydrogenation reaction to proceed at 50 °C. Some substituent effects in the α,β-unsaturated ketones were demonstrated at this temperature. These showed an increase in the initial rate of reduction for electron-attracting groups and the inverse effect for electron-donating groups. The observation of a relation between the electrochemical reduction potential of these ketones and their rate of hydrogenation suggests a transfer of hydrogen to the ketone by a hydride ion intermediate.

Oxidation of N,N′-dimethyl-9,9′-biacridanyl (DD) has been investigated as a model for single electron transfer (SET)-initiated oxidation of NADH coenzyme models such as N-methylacridan (DH). Oxidants investigated cover a 1010-fold range of reactivity in acetonitrile and include the π acceptors 1,4-benzoquinone (BQ), 2,6-dichloro-1,4-benzoquinone (DCIBQ), p-chloranil (CA), 2,3-dicyanobenzoquinone (DCBQ), 2,3-dicyano-1,4-naphthoquinone (DCNQ), 2,3-dicyano-5-nitro-1,4-naphthoquinone (DCNNQ), 9-dicyanomethylene-2,4,7-trinitrofluorene (DCMTNF), 9-dicyanomethylene-2,4,5,7-tetranitrofluorene (DCMTENF), 7,7,8,8-tetracyanoquinodimethane (TCNQ), and tetracyanoethylene (TCNE), and the one-electron oxidant tris(2,2′-bipyridyl)cobalt(III), [Formula: see text] The oxidation product is, in every case, N-methylacridinium ion (D+). A mechanism involving a rate-determining electron transfer with simultaneous fragmentation to D+ and N-methyl-9-acridanyl radical (D•) is proposed. This mechanism is supported by the observed dependence of the rate on oxidant reduction potential, by spin-trapping experiments, by kinetic isotope effects in oxidation of 9,9′-dideuterio-DD, and by substituent effects in oxidation of 2,2′- and 3,3′-dimethoxy-DD. The rate of oxidation of DD relative to that of DH is 3.4 × 102 with [Formula: see text] and with the π acceptors varies from ea. 0.3 (BQ) to 8.1 × 104 (DCMTENF). The results rule out a SET-initiated mechanism for oxidation of DH by all of the oxidants studied except TCNQ and DCMTENF.

Polarographic reduction of a series of 4-substituted 1-iodobicyclo[2,2,2]octanes has been examined in an attempt to assess the effect of substituents on the half-wave reduction potential. It is found that the values of E� do not show a linear correlation with the relevant σ1 constants; the deviations are discussed in terms of the relative importance of the steric and electric field effects of the substituent. Controlled-potential electrolysis of a number of the substrates reveals that the hydrocarbon corresponding to fission of the carbon-iodine bond is formed in high yield.

A study of fluorescence properties of thiazolo[4,5-b]pyrazine derivatives with the phenyl group at C2, prepared from amidopyrazines. The introduction of electron-donating groups onto the 2-phenyl moiety increases the fluorescence yield and appearance of solvatochromic character.

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.
