We have compared the photooxidation of the title compound, DEA, by diphenyliodonium salts in homogeneous acetonitrile (AN) and in heptane/AOT/water reverse micelle solutions. The reaction is efficient, which we attribute to rapid (ca. 10 ps) deethylation of the DEA radical cation, initially formed by photoinduced electron transfer. In AN, the electron transfer occurs from singlet excited DEA, but in reverse micelles it is gated by intersystem crossing to triplet DEA. Under these conditions, DEA fluorescence quenching by the iodonium cation may still be observed; we infer operation of the external heavy atom effect as the primary mechanism. Keywords: anthracene, electron transfer, reverse micelle, photochemistry, picosecond.

The fluorescence of perylene in fluid solution (λ0.0 = 440 nm) is quenched by silver ions in a dynamic process according to a Stern-Volmer kinetics (kq = 2 · 109 [1 • mol-1 · sec-1], in ethanol at 295 K). Simultaneously an unstructured long-wavelength emission (λmax ≈ 470 nm) appears which we assign to a perylene/Ag+ exciplex. A similar emission is observed when other polvcyclic aromatic compounds (PAC) are used, whose fluorescence as in the case of perylene is not easily quenched in an external heavy atom effect by iodopropane (kq ≦ 106). In these cases the excited PAC/Ag+ complex is long-lived enough to emit fluorescence since the intersystem crossing to the triplet system is slow due to the absence of an energetically favorable accepting triplet state
