A series of triplet 9-triptycyl(aryl)carbenes, where aryl groups are phenyl, 1- and 2-naphthyl, and 9-anthryl, is generated by photolysis of the corresponding diazomethanes and observed directly by spectroscopic means. Their structures are characterized by electron spin resonance (ESR) spectroscopy in a 2-methyltetrahydrofuran matrix at 77 K, and the reactivities are investigated by laser flash photolysis in degassed benzene solution at room temperature. Comparison of the data with other arylcarbenes bearing a series of substituents, i.e., hydrogen, phenyl, naphthyl, and anthryl groups, revealed an interesting relationship between structures and reactivities of triplet arylcarbenes.Key words: steric protection, stability of triplet carbenes, electron spin resonance, laser flash photolysis, structure-reactivity relationship.

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.

The photochemical dehalogenation of α-haloacetophenones (Cl, Br) in benzene solution has been examined under conditions of continuous and pulsed laser irradiation. Product and quantum yield studies indicate that carbon-halogen bond cleavage occurs with quantum yields of 0.88 and 0.41 for α-chloro- and α-bromoacetophenone, respectively. These values are based on trapping studies in which the PhC(O)ĊH2 radicals produced photochemically are scavenged by hydrogen donors such as benzenethiol. Laser flash photolysis studies lead to intense transient signals due to benzene–halogen complexes. Combination of transient data and quantum yields lead to extinction coefficients of 1 800 and 23 700 M−1 cm−1 for the chlorine (490 nm) and bromine (550 nm) complexes, respectively.
