Photosensitized Electron-transfer Reactions of Phenylacetylene
Mattes, Susan L.,Farid, Samir
, p. 126 - 128 (1980)
Phenylacetylene (A) reacts with excited sensitizers (S) to produce radical ions (S).-, (A).+, which react as geminate or separated pairs with (A) to give a dimeric radical cation (A+-.A);the latter reacts with nitriles to give pyridines (1) or with nitromethane leading to an oxidation product (2) and a dimer (1-phenylnaphthalene) is also formed via the geminate pair.
