Methylene Blue incorporated into colloidal oxidized polypyrrole was investigated by absorption spectroscopy and laser flash photolysis. The absorption spectra of Methylene Blue and polypyrrole were unaffected by incorporation. Flash photolysis transients of Methylene Blue and triplet Methylene Blue in ethanol were affected by 1,4-benzoquinone and 1,4-benzoquinol but not by the long-chain naphthoquinone Vitamin K1. Incorporation of Methylene Blue in polypyrrole produced distinct changes in the flash photolysis transients of Methylene Blue and triplet Methylene Blue. Very long-lived transients, with lifetimes of the order of 10 ms, were observed. These effects were accompanied by long-lived changes in the absorption spectrum of Methylene Blue. The transients were modified by the addition of 1,4-benzoquinone but not 1,4-benzoquinol. The results indicate photochemical reduction of oxidized polypyrrole by triplet Methylene Blue with the production of stable long-lived species capable of reducing 1,4-benzoquinone.

The UV absorption spectrum of benzylchlorocarbene, generated by laser flash photolysis of 3-chloro-3- benzyldiazirine, has been observed in the 290-330 nm range. The lifetime of this species, 18 ns at 25°C, is determined by the rate of the 1,2-H migration to produce chlorostyrenes. Quenching rate constants of this carbene by acetic acid and tetramethylethylene have been measured. Comparison of this kinetic data with the quantitative analysis of the products obtained under continuous irradiation gives further insight into the mechanisms of carbene-acetic acid reactions.


A new system of absorption bands near 3600 Å has been observed during the flash photolysis of CF 3 NCF 2 and is ascribed to the free F 2 CN radical. The rotational analysis of the 0–0 band leads to the ground state molecular structure r CF = 1.310 Å (assumed), r CN = 1.265 ± 0.02 Å, FCF angle = 113.5 + 1°. The bands are shown to be type A bands arising from the transition 2 A 1 ← 2 B 2 , and the spectrum is compared with those of the iso-electronic molecules NO 3 and F 2 BO.

The kinetics of the reaction between gas phase BrO and HO2 radicals, BrO + HO2 → HOBr + O2 (1), have been studied over the atmospherically relevant temperature range T = 246–314 K and at ambient pressure, p = 760 ± 20 Torr, using laser flash photolysis coupled with ultraviolet absorption spectroscopy.
