A new type of push–pull charge transfer complex, viz., a spiro-locked N-heterocycle-fused zinc porphyrin, ZnP-SQ, is shown to undergo excited state charge separation, which is enhanced by axial F− binding to the Zn center.

Photolysis of the 1-methylnaphthalene/tetranitromethane charge-transfer complex yields the triad of 1-methylnaphthalene radical cation, nitrogen dioxide and trinitromethanide ion. Recombination of this triad gives predominantly 4-methyl-t-2-nitro-r-1-trinitromethyl-1,2- dihydronaphthalene (1), the epimeric 1-methyl-1-nitro-4-trinitromethyl-1,4-dihydronaphtha-lenes (2) and (3), 8-methyl-c-4-trinitromethyl-1,4-dihydronaphthalen-r-l-ol (4), nitro cyclo -adduct (5), 8-methyl-c-4-trinitromethyl-1,4-dihydronaphthalen-r-l-ol (6), hydroxy cyclo-adduct (7) and 4-methyl-t-1-trinitromethyl-1,2-dihydronaphthalen-r-2-ol (8). Adducts (1)- (3), (5), (7) and (8) are formed by attack of the trinitromethanide ion at C4 of the 1-methylnaphthalene radical cation, while adducts (4) and (6) are formed by corresponding attack at C5. Adduct (1) undergoes thermal cycloaddition to give the nitro cycloadduct (5) and it is assumed that the hydroxy cycloadduct (7) is formed in analogous manner from 4-methyl-t-1-trinitromethyl-1,2-dihydronaphthalen-r-2-ol (8). X-Ray crystal structure determinations are reported for adducts (1), (3)-(5) and (7).

Photolysis of the 1,2-dimethylnaphthalene/tetranitromethane charge-transfer complex yields the triad of 1,2-dimethylnaphthalene radical cation, nitrogen dioxide, and trinitromethanide ion. Recombination of this triad gives predominantly the adducts (13)-(16), each of which is formed by attack of the trinitromethanide ion at C4 of the 1,2-dimethylnaphthalene radical cation. Thermal cycloaddition in adducts (13) and (16) gives the cycloadducts (12) and (17) respectively.
