The biradicals generated in the Norrish type II reaction are efficient electron donors. They are shown to react with a series of bipyridilium cations, pyridine derivatives, and aromatic nitro compounds. The rates of reaction follow the same trends as those observed for monoradicals. For example, the biradical from ..gamma..-methyl-valerophenone reacts with benzyl viologen with k/sub 3/ = 3.9 x 10/sup 9/ M/sup -1/ s/sup -1/ and with 2,5-dinitrobenzoic acid with k/sub 3/ = 7.6 x 10/sup 8/ M/sup -1/ s/sup -1/. 3 figures, 1 table.
