Intramolecular biradical formation from the triplet state of 2,4,6-triisopropylbenzophenone was studied by the ns laser-photolysis technique.The transient absorption spectra of the triplet state and the biradical were measured and their lifetimes were determined to be 225 +/- 13 ns and 17 +/- 2 μs in acetonitrile, respectively.

Quantum yields for photocyclization of 2,4,6-triisopropylbenzophenones in the solid state were estimated by using an usual merry-go-round apparatus.The results suggest that the ?,?* excited state is responsible for the reaction.

Nanosecond laser photolyses of 2,4,6-triisopropylbenzophenoses (TIB-X) have been performed in benzene at room temperature, and the characteristic absorption bands due to the highly hindered triplet states are observed around 600 about 800 nm.For the meta-

Photoreduction products and quenching rates by s-butylamine of triplets of the title ketones 1, 4, 7, 9, and 11 indicate that the electronic excitation in 9 in completely shifted toward the hindered carbonyl group rather than the acetyl carbonyl, while th

The meta-substituted polyketones 1b - f, including the parent ketone 1a, afforded approximately similar values for the quantum yield of benzocyclobutenol formation (ΦCB), the triplet lifetime (τ), ET, and λmax, respectivel

Measurement of product quantum yields indicated that reactions of molecular oxygen with diradicals photogenerated from 2,4,6-tri-isopropylbenzophenones (3a-e) were accelerated by the presence of both electron-donating (OMe and Me) and electron-withdrawing (Cl and CF3) substituents, this acceleration probably resulted from the zwitterionic nature of the diradicals.

,6-Diisopropyl-2,2-dimethyl-1-phenyl-1,2-dihydrobenzocyclobuten-1-ol (2) was submitted to direct (254 nm) and sensitized photolysis and thermolysis in the absence or presence of oxygen. Direct photolysis (313 nm) of 2,4,6-triisopropylbenzophenone (1) was also performed in the absence or presence of oxygen. Interconversion between 1 and 2 and production of 1,3-diisopropyl-10,10-dimethylanthrone (3) and ,4-dihydro-1-hydroxy-6,8-diisopropyl-4,4-dimethyl-1-phenyl-2,3-benzo dioxin (4) happened in various quantum yields depending upon the reaction conditons. It is concluded that DR, which is generated from the direct photolysis of 1, is spin protected and its lifetime is determined by the rate of intersystem crossing.

Photochemically initiated benzocyclobutenol formation from a variety of 4'-substituted (4'-X) 2,4,6-triisopropylbenzophenones 1a-f (a, X = OMe; b, X = Me; c, X = H; d, X = CO2Me; e, X = CF3; f, X = CN) as well as from 2,4,6-trimethylbenzophenone (3a) and 2,4,6-triethylbenzophenone (3b) was studied.The quantum yields of the benzocyclobutenols 2a-f ranged from 0.60 for 2c to 0.06 for 2f in benzene.By usual Stern-Volmer quenching and sensitization methods using diene as quencher or sensitizer, various photokinetic data for these ketones, i.e., triplet lifetime (τT) and its temperature dependence (Ea and log A), rate constant for intramolecular hydrogen abstraction from o-isopropyl methine hydrogens (kr) and its isotope effect (kH/kD), rate constant for bimolecular triplet quenching (k2) with hydrogen donors (Bu3SnH, mesitylene, and cyclooctane), and intersystem crossing yield (ΘT), were estimated.The effect of 4'-substituents (4'-X) on kr (or kT) was unusual for a series of compounds 1a-c and 1e in that kr decreased in going from 1a (X = OMe) to 1e (X = CF3).This novel substituent effect was interpreted on the basis of hindered rotation in the excited state around the bond linking the 2,4,6-triisopropylphenyl and carbonyl groups.This interpretation was nicely supported by the results obtained for Ea (unusually large, e.g., Ea = 90 kcal/mol for 1c), kH/kD (1.5 for 1c), and k2 (increased in going from 1a to 1e).It is deduced that an increased n?* character of aromatic ketone triplets results in an increased barrier to rotation (viz., an increased double-bond character) about cAr-C(=O) single bond in triplet excited state.
