, p. 81 - 84 (2021)
A Cu-catalyzed O-alkylation of phenol derivatives using alkylsilyl peroxides as alkyl radical precursors is described. The reaction proceeds smoothly under mild reaction conditions and the use of two different ligands with a Cu catalyst provides a wide range of products. A mechanistic study suggested that the reaction proceeds via a radical mechanism. This journal is
Photochemistry of nonconjugated diketones: internal self-quenching and energy transfer

The triplet state behavior of nine α,ο-dibenzoylalkanes indicates the occurrence of a rapid quenching interaction between the two carbonyl groups.This quenching is fastest (k=3E7 s-1) in dibenzoylbutane, is slightly slower (ca.E7 s-1) in dibenzoylethane, dibenzoylpentane, and 2,2-dibenzoylpropane, but is absent in 1,3-dibenzoylpropane.It also occurs in several "mixed" 1,4-diaroylbutanes incorporating p-ethylbenzoyl or p-methoxybenzoyl chromophores.This internal self-quenching is interpreted as the intramolecular counterpart of the well-know bimolecular self-quenching of aryl ketones, although no exact mechanism can be proposed.Such internal quenching does not occur as rapidly, if at all, in three "turned around" diketones: δ-(p-acetylphenyl)valerophenone, δ-(p-acetylphenoxy)valerophenone, and γ-(p-acetylphenoxy)butyrophenone.This fact, together with the varying rates of internal self-quenching in the dibenzoylalkanes, indicates the necessity for a very specific and close orientation of the two carbonyl groups for self-quenching.In the mixed diketones containing a p-alkylbenzoyl group, triplet excitation appears to be fully equilibrated between the two chromophores.However, in those containing a p-methoxybenzoyl group, excitation does not fully equilibrate before triplet decay, as evidenced by different quenching efficiencies for products from the two carbonyls.Analysis indicates intramolecular energy transfer rate constants -1.These are sufficiently lower than in other bichromophoric systems to suggest relatively slow energy hopping in the polymers of phenyl vinyl ketone.Key words: nonconjugated diketones, dibenzoylalkanes, sefl-quenching, energy transfer, triplet ketones.
