Abstract

Abstract: Para-substituted diphenylmethyl halides, acetates, and ethers RPh (R'Ph) CH-X (R, R'= CF3 to OCH3), upon photolysis with-250-nm light in acetonitrile solutions, undergo homolysis and heterolysis of the CX bond to give the radicals, RPh (R'Ph) CH'(abbreviated as C), and the cations, RPh (R'Ph) CH+((2'). Whereas the quantum yields for homolysis (0.2- 0.4) are rather independent of the nature of the substituent on the benzene ring, those for ...
