Studies were conducted on photophysical and photochemical processes in chlorophyll a in carbon tetrachloride and ether by means of flash photolysis, electron spin resonance, and fluorescence spectroscopy. Lifetimes and quenching of triplet states were analyzed and absorption spectra and fluorescence decay times are given. The kinetics of triplet-triplet absorption and hyperfine structure were determined. An absolute quantum yield of the photochemical reaction was measured within the range of linear dependence of the optical density on the time of chlorophyll a irradiation by a krypton laser and the excitation wavelength of 647.1 nm.
