Photochemistry and Electron Transfer Studies

We have shown that radical cations generated by photoinduced electron transfer (ET) in 1,2-diarylethanes, aryl pinacols, and their derivatives undergo fragmentation reactions. In the presence of oxygen oxidative products are obtained. Time-resolved laser flash photolysis and other ancillary techniques have permitted us to define the mechanisms of certain oxidative processes observed.
