Abstract

Electron transfer processes in the reaction of phenothiazine and 10-methylphenothiazine with 2, 2′-azobisisobutyronitrile have been examined by UV and ESR spectroscopies. The reaction was found to proceed via one electron transfer from phenothiazine derivatives to a cyanoisopropyl radical.
