This paper discusses how benzophenone undergoes photoreduction to form benzophenone ketyl radical by an intracellular reaction in the benzophenone 1,4-cyclohexadiene mixed expansion in a supersonic free jet expansion. No ketyl radical fluorescence is observed when triethylamine, 2-propanol, or ethanol is the hydrogen donor; thus the normal molecular cluster activity depends on the nature of the hydrogen donor. 36 refs., 5 figs.
