Picosecond dynamics of photochemical systems. Final report, 1/1/79-6/30/80. [(Ketone) fluorenone; 1,4-diazobicyclooctane (amine)]

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6387941

The mechanism of the photoreduction of aromatic ketones by amines has been investigated using picosecond absorption spectroscopy. The experiments reveal that the process involves complete electron transfer occurring within a half-life of 20 picoseconds for benzophenone/Dabco and fluorenone/Dabco.
