The 9,10-dicyanoanthracene-sensitized photo-oxygenation of 1,4-dimethylnaphthalene is shown to depend on solvent polarity.Radical ion pair and singlet exciplex are suggested to be intermediates in this photochemical reaction.Mechanisms consistent with the effects of solvent polarity are proposed.

Photooxygenation of naphtalenic compounds sensitized by electron acceptors like 9,10 dicyanoanthracene (DCA) is shown to proceed by two distinct ways depending on the solvent polarity.In a polar solvent superoxide ion (O2-.) as well as singlet oxygen (1O2*) are involved while in a non polar solvent only singlet oxygen is produced.
