Direct photolysis of ((3-trimethylsilylpropoxy)phenyl)phenyliodonium salts with different counter-anions (Cl-, SbF6-, and B(C6F5)4-) in methanol leads to products by both heterolytic and homolytic processes. In the presence of 1-naphthol and 1-methoxynaphthalene, products formed by a heterolytic reaction disappear, suggesting an electron-transfer process occurs between excited 1-naphthol/1-methoxynaphthalene and the iodonium salts. In the case of 1-methoxynaphthalene, three phenylated methoxynaphthalene isomers are produced. These are produced as radical coupling products from the phenyl radical and 1-methoxynaphthalene radical cation.
