Abstract
The electron transfer from the benzophenone ketyl radical in the excited state (BPH(.-)(D(1))) to several quenchers (Qs) was investigated using nanosecond/picosecond two-color two-laser flash photolysis and nanosecond/nanosecond two-color two-laser flash photolysis. The electron transfer from BPH(.-)(D(1)) to Qs was confirmed by the transient absorption and fluorescence quenching measurements. The intermolecular electron-transfer rate constants were determined using the Stern-Volmer analysis. The driving force dependence of the electron-transfer rate was revealed.
