Quantitative measurements of the photolytic reactions of cyclododecanone gave quantum yields of reaction and of intersystem crossing as 0.56 and 0.88 respectively, and a triplet lifetime of 1.7 x 10-7 s. Cyclobutanol formation accounts for most of the reaction with only a low yield of the Norrish II cleavage product; this contrasts markedly with the opposite behaviour of acyclic ketones of similar size. The results may be explained by the apparent restriction of rotation in cyclododecanone molecules.

UV photolysis (365 nm) of 3,4-dimethoxy-1-nitrobenzene in the presence of potassium cyanide leading to 3-cyano-4-methoxy-1-nitrobenzene was subjected to a quantitative photokinetic study. The reaction exhibits a second order kinetics with respect to the nucleophile and is effectively quenched by molecular oxygen as well as 2,4-hexadienoic acid. The excited triplet lifetime of 0.9 microseconds was determined on the basis of the dependence of quantum yield on the nucleophile and quencher concentrations in 50% aqueous tert-butanol. The quantum yield of intersystem crossing is at least 0.38 in the same solvent; bimolecular rate constant for the interaction of triplet 3,4-dimethoxy-1-nitrobenzene with cyanide anion has the value of 5.6 . 108 l . mol-1s-1, which is approximately one half of the rate constant for diffusion controlled quenching. Quantum yield of the reaction is strongly dependent on the water content in mixtures with tert-butanol and increases from 0.04 in water to 0.68 in 88% tert-butanol.

Singlet and triplet excited state data on two new core-modified expanded porphyrins and their protonated derivatives are reported. Absorption spectral studies indicate a gradual red shift of the absorption bands upon sulfur substitution into the core. The singlet lifetimes for expanded S 3-sapphyrin and S 4-rubyrin decrease steadily relative to STPPH and S 2 TPP owing to a higher rate of intersystem crossing. Furthermore, the protonated derivatives of S 3-sapphyrin and S 4-rubyrin encapsulate fluoride ions into their cavities with binding constants of 807 and 48 M−1 respectively. However, the triplet lifetime for S 3-sapphyrin is longer (58.80 μs) than for normal thiaporphyrins (STPPH, 37.45 μs; S 2 TPP , 20.96 μs), suggesting that it could be very well suited for photosensitizing triplet oxygen.

We describe a new family of catalysts that undergo direct ground state singlet to excited state triplet excitation with IR light, leading to photoredox catalysis without the energy waste associated with intersystem crossing. The finding allows a mole scale reaction in batch using infrared irradiation.

Multireference quantum chemical calculations were performed in order to investigate the (reverse) intersystem crossing ((R)ISC) mechanisms of 4,5-di(9H-carbazol-9-yl)-phthalonitrile (2CzPN).

We have studied the anthracene-sensitized photolyses of both diphenyliodonium and triphenylsulphonium salts in solution using both steady-state and laser flash photolysis techniques. Photoproducts, namely, phenylated anthracenes along with iodobenzene or diphenylsulphide, respectively, are obtained from both salts with quantum efficiencies of ca. 0.1 at 375 nm. We infer the intermediacy of diphenyliodo and triphenylsulphur radicals formed by single electron transfer from the singlet-excited anthracene. We have developed a quantitative model of this chemistry, and identify the principal sources of inefficiency as back electron transfer, which occurs at nearly the theoretically limiting rate, intersystem crossing from the initially formed sensitizer–'onium salt encounter complex, and in-cage radical recombination.
