Abstract

Dewar benzene has been shown to be a primary product from the photolysis of benzene in low temperature argon matrices at 253.7 nm. This is the first observation of Dewar benzene production at this wavelength and a mechanism is proposed that involves benzene Sl-S2 state mixing induced by the matrix environment. Analogous experiments on the photolysis of pyridine show that the only primary products are isomeric species derived at least in part ...
