Rate constants were calculated from triplet lifetimes obtained from quenching experiments. The quenching experiments were performed on both m- and p- iodobenzophenones in various solvents. The solvents employed were cyclopentane, cyclooctane, methanol-ethanol and t- butylalcohol solvent mixtures, acetonitrile containing n- octanethiol, and carbon tetrachloride. Naphthalene was used as quencher in all solvents. The triplet lifetimes of the para isomer were found to be viscosity dependent while those for meta were influenced by solvent polarity. Product quantum yields for both isomers were dependent on solvent viscosity. Photolysis of both m- and p-iodobenzophenones gave radicals that result from the loss of iodine from the aromatic ring. These radicals underwent hydrogen abstraction from a hydrogen donor molecule to give benzophenone or chlorine atom abstraction from carbon tetrachloride solvent to give the corresponding chlorobenzophenones.

Kropp et al.3'7110 and Cristol et al.8v9111‘13 have reported that alkyl. halides, particularly iodides, frequently afforded products derived from not only radical reactions but also from carbocationic intermediates. The observed products were the result of carbocationic intermediates undergoing isomerization, Wagner-Meerwein rearrangement, nucleophilic trapping by the solvent and elimination. In all cases reduction products were detected. The alkyl halides studied included halosubstituted norbornanes, adamantanes and n-octanes,3"5 simple cyclic and acyclic halides,5'7 vinyl halides,6 and halogen derivatives of dibenzobicyclooctadiene,8 -nonatriene,9 and benzotricyclooctene8 systems. These compounds were studied in various liquid media. (P5: :Vui ‘v~ O‘. SE: c,, 4“ I‘M rm ‘ ‘7 6‘“ 3 In solution the initially generated radical pair is assumed to undergo electron transfer within the radical cage giving an ion pair and, ultimately, carbocationic products (Scheme 1).3r5r1° This mechanism is preferred to that described by the simultaneous occurrence of two competing modes of cleavage, homolysis vs. heterolysis.9 menu hv RX-—>(R'°X):.:ER° + X°—> radical products electron transfer (R"' X') :2- R+ + x" —-> ionic products Photoproducts resulting from carbocationic intermediates are not restricted to alkyl and vinyl halides but also occur to a lesser extent in the photolysis of benzyl chlorides. Direct irradiation of benzyl chloride with light of wave length 2540A in methanol and ethanol gave only radical products11 while in t-butyl alcohol photosolvolysis products accompanied the expected radical products. Photo-sensitization with acetone at 3000A led to products derived from benzyl cations. Direct irradiation of benzyl chloride and its derivatives favored carbon-halogen bond homolysis while triplet sensitization encouraged heterolysis.11’13 Results obtained from studies on the substituent effects upon the photochemistry of various benzyl chlorides suggest the involvement of two excited triplet states. Both states are 4 assumed accessible via the first singlet state and may contribute to the influence direct irradiation vs. triplet sensitization has on the formation of homolysis vs. heterolysis products.13 Halobenzenes do not give ionic photoproducts. Products resulting from radical reactions occurred while those derived from nucleophilic trapping of a carbocationic intermediate by alcoholic solvents were not observed. The irradiation of halobenzenes with light of wave length 2540A produced radical species formed from the homolysis of the carbon-halogen bond, proposed by Lemal and co-workers to be a high energy isomer of the original halobenzene referred to as_ '7-halobenzene.”14 The resultant aryl radical X hv Q 2540A generally underwent hydrogen atom abstraction resulting in the t-halobenzene photoreduction of the carbon-halogen bond15 and/or addition to an aromatic solvent molecule.

Kharasch and Gotlich have shown that the reaction can be applied to other types of organic halides, particularly iodides.3° Photo-induced cleavage of the carbon-halogen bond also occurs in some aromatic ketones substituted in the ring. Baum and Pitts31 reported that the irradiation of p-bromo- butyrophenone with 3000A light formed the unsubstituted butyrophenone as the major photoproduct. No detectable amount of Type II photoproducts were observed. The meta isomer and the valerophenone analogue32 underwent photoreduction of the carbon-halogen bond to a lesser extent while the p-chloro and p-fluorobutyrophenones gave exclusively Type II photo- 6 products.31r32 Sedon showed that p-chloromethylvalero- phenones gave only the reduction product, p-methylvalero- phenone33, while the p-bromo, m-bromo and m-CHZCl compound gave mixtures of Type II and reduction products.34 Photo-induced homolysis is in competition with Norrish Type II photocyclization and elimination reactions. The presence of Y-carbon-hydrogen bond in the alkyl chain of phenyl alkyl ketones allows for the characteristic 1,5 hydrogen-shift to occur upon irradiation giving a 1,4 biradical intermediate.36 This biradical undergoes'cleavage in the alkyl chain to form elimination products and cyclization to form phenyl substituted cyclobutanols.37 The presence of a halogen or halomethyl substituent allows the phenyl alkyl ketone to follow two different pathways (Scheme 2).38 There has been little study on the photochemistry of halobenzophenones even though the unsubstituted benzophenone has been widely studied. Benzophenone undergoes photoreduction of the carbonyl group in various alcoholic solvents via hydrogen atom abstraction by the carbonyl oxygen giving a hemipinacol radical (I). The dimerization of this radical yields the benzopinacol (II) (Scheme 3).39'4° Chloro- and fluoro-benzophenones' photobehavior is quite similar to that of benzophenone. Both halobenzophenones undergo photoreduction of the carbonyl group in cyclopentane giving products derived from their hemipinacol 7 radicals.41 Photoreduction of the carbon-halogen bond is not observed.

Irradiation of bromo- and iodobenzophenones in toluene with light of wave length 3130A (maximum absorption of the carbonyl group) yielded benzophenone as the major photoproduct35. The p-iodo and o-bromo compounds were found by Baum and Pitts to be most reactive while the p-bromo isomer was of intermediate reactivity.35 Photolysis of p-halomethyl- benzophenones also resulted in carbon-halogen bond homolysis. The isolation of dimer III as the secondary photoproduct of p-chloromethylbenzophenone in benzene is indicative of this (Scheme 4).40 The mode by which the energy pumped into the carbonyl group, using 3130A light, traverses the aromatic ring- to reside in the carbon-halogen bond and ultimately shattering it remains unknown. ._.

The purpose of this research is to determine the rate constant of the cleavage of iodine from iodobenzophenone in various solvents. In order to determine rate constants of carbon-iodine bond - cleavage, quenching experiments using naphthalene as a triplet quencher, were performed on both m- and p-iodobenzophenones. The solutions for the quenching experiments were prepared with constant concentration of either iodobenzophenone isomer, an internal standard and varying quencher concentrations. The solutions were then irradiated with 3650A. The resulting Photoproduct concentrations were then used to determine the ratio of quantum yield of product formation in the absence Versus in the presence of quencher. . This ratio of product quantum yields when plotted as a function of quencher concentration gave linear Stern-Volmer Iflots. From the slopes the lifetimes of the excited triplet State and therefore the rate constant of carbon-iodine bond Cleavage can be determined. RESULTS RESULTS The photochemistry of m- and p-iodobenzophenone (m-IBP and p-IBP, respectively) was studied in various solvents. These solvents included cyclopentane, cyclooctane, a methanol-ethanol mixture (9:1 ratio by volume), a t-butylalcohol-ethanol mixture (8:2 ratio by volume), acetonitrile and carbon tetrachloride. The ethanol in the methanol-ethanol mixture prevented the shattering of the Pyrex culture tubes during the free-thaw-pump degassing process. Irradiation of both ketones in cyclopentane, cyclooctane, methanol-ethanol, t-butylalcohol-ethanol and acetonitrile resulted in the formation of benzophenone (BP) as the major photoproduct. This indicates the loss of iodine from the aromatic ringl4’15 possibly forming a BP radical (IV). 0 O Trapping of this radical occurs due to its ability to 'abstract hydrogen atoms from a neighboring hydrogen donor ‘molecule.14'15 Cyclopentane, cyclooctane, methanol-ethanol and the ethanol in t-butylalcohol-ethanol all served as excellent hydrogen donors. Acetonitrile is an aprotic solvent therefore “‘Octanethiol was used as a hydrogen donor. Thiols are well 11 12 known for their ability to trap radicals by donating their hydrogen atoms.43v44 In carbon tetrachloride the loss of iodine from the aromatic ring still occurs as indicated by the production of diatomic iodine. The major photoproduct is the corresponding chlorobenzophenone (ClBP). SEW Irradiation of m- and p-IBP in cyclopentane at 3650A gave rise to two photoproducts, one identified as BP by l.c. retention times and by GCMS analysis. The other photoproduct was identified as iodocyclopentane, IC, by GCMS analysis. The ketone solution remained clear colorless after irradiation indicating the absence of diatomic iodine.

The Qp value for p-CIBP resulting from the irradiation of p-IBP is 0.0661. These Op values are quite similar to the 93p values obtained in cyclooctane. Two degassed solutions of 0.0196M iodobenzene (TB), 0.0150M BP and 0.00925M n-pentylbenzoate were irradiated at 3650A for two hours each. Both samples remained clear colorless after irradiation. They were both analyzed by GCMS and found to contain all starting compounds with no photoproducts observed. DISCUSSION DISCUSSION W The photoreactions of both m-IBP and p-IBP are identical in all solvents employed. BP is the major photoproduct. Photoreduction of the carbon-iodine bond results in all the solvents except in carbon tetrachloride where the aromatic iodine is exchanged for a chlorine, producing the corresponding CIBP. The relative responses of the two isomers to the changes in solvent viscosity and polarity are remarkably different. Quenching studies of p-IBP using naphthalene as the triplet quencher show a steady increase in qu values, the slope of linear Stern-Volmer plots, with increasing solvent viscosity (Tables II and III). This trend suddenly falls off in the eXtremely highly viscous t-butanol-ethanol solvent mixture. Wagner and Kochevar have reported the decrease in kg, the diffusion-controlled quenching rate constant, with increasing solvent viscosity.45 An increase in qu values with increasing Solvent viscosity, as in the case of p-IBP (Table III) reflects an unexpected increase in r, the lifetime of the reaCting excited state. Despite its varying value, para's 1 still remains small, on the order of 10’9s. The reaction rate constant, kr (= 1/1) is approximately 109s‘1. 28 29 Tabis II Vissgsity 9f tns vaziggs sglvents.ii figlzsnt Visggsity, c2 acetonitrile 0.345 t-butanol 3.316 carbon tetrachloride 0.965 cyclooctane 2.1621 cyclopentane 0.439 ethanol 1.078 methanol 0.5506 While p-IBP's triplet lifetime shows a strong sensitivity to solvent viscosity and at the same time is nearly completely- unresponsive to solvent polarity, the meta isomer does not display such a straightforward trend in its photobehavior. The effect of solvent viscosity on m-IBP's triplet lifetime appears to be non-existent until viewed within the context of solvent polarity. The triplet lifetimes of the meta isomer are comparable in the solvents of similar polarity but which have varying viscosities. In the polar solvents, t-butylalcohol-ethanol and methanol-ethanol 1 are identical despite the fact that the former solvent is nearly five times more viscous than the latter. The same can be said for r of m-IBP in the non-polar solvents, cyclopentane and carbon tetrachloride, even though carbon tetrachloride is over twice as viscous as cyclopentane.

Meta's triplet lifetime is dependent only upon solvent polarity, a greater value for 1 being observed in nonpolar solvents than in polar solvents. Quenching studies of both IBP isomers in acetonitrile using a thiol as a radical trapper43v44_resulted in an almost horizontal Stern-Volmer plot suggesting the inability of naphthalene to quench the triplet in this solvent. The efficiency of product formation from the photolysis of the para isomer shows a general decrease with increasing viscosity of the five lighter solvents (Figure 11, Table I). In the heavier t-butylacohol-ethanol solvent mixture 9 displays a marked increase. The meta isomer displays a similar trend, except for the lowered Q value in acetonitrile. Within a particular type of solvent, i.e. alcohol mixtures vs. hydrocarbons, the viscosity dependency of for both isomers holds true. These results indicate the initial formation of a radical pair, a BP radical and an iodine atom within a solvent cage. The increase in solvent viscosity increases the time the radicals spend in their cage by hindering the rate at which the radicals diffuse from their cage and consequently react with the solvent to form the photoproduct. This encourages incage recombination which ultimately results in the rapid deactivation of the excited triplet state to the ground state accounting for the low 9 values in solvents of higher 32 '3,‘ V {1 - C9! 1! . . t 3.9-..df!’ P.

C - o d Irradiations of IBP's were carried out at 3130A, the absorption maximum of the carbonyl chromophore and at 3650A, a wave length where naphthalene does not absorb. Both the 1-1* transition involving the benzene ring and the n-a* transition, the lowest lying of the carbon-iodine bondlo, are improbable. The absorption maxima lie at 2540A for the former transition and in the region of 2600-2800A for the latter. Neither transition allows for the huge differences between the reactivities of the two isomers, para being up to 78 times more reactive than meta. - The IBPs have n-r* lowest triplet excited states. An 3nfw* is reported for the unsubstituted, fluoro, chloro and bromobenzophenones47 and is expected for the iodo analog. Scheme 6 explains the great difference in reactivity between the para and meta isomers but does not sufficiently describe the mechanism of energy transfer through the ring. 0 O O h. :11” Maggie 3x*——~[W:“-J 35 Irradiation of the unsubstituted BP and 18 in cyclopentane at 3650A, a wavelength where 18 does not absorb, is expected to yield the "alkoxylike" biradical (IV). This biradical, through abstracting a hydrogen atom from a cyclopentane molecule, would form the semibenzopinacol (I) and cyclopentyl (CP) radicals. Production of iodocyclopentane (IC) can occur only through the abstraction of an iodine atom from IB by a CP radical. The resulting benzene radical (V) is left to abstract a hydrogen from the O. V solvent thereby generating additional CP radicals. In the actual experiment IC and benzene were not observed, indicating the CP radical's inability to abstract an iodine atom from 18 and therefore IBP. Even though the mechanism by which the energy pumped into the carbonyl group traverses the aromatic ring entering into the carbon-halogen bond, thereby breaking it homolytically, remains unclear, abstraction of the iodine from the aromatic ring by a solvent molecule is not involved.

The solution was heated to 509C for three hours and then left to stir at room temperature for approximately 12 hours. The excess thionyl chloride was removed by diluting the reaction mixture with cyclohexane and placing on an aspirator. The solvent was evaporated off on a rotovap. Benzene, 25ml and anhydrous aluminum chloride (2.00 grams, 0.015 mole) were placed in a three-neck 100ml round bottom flask fitted with a dropping funnel, condenser, magnetic stirring bar, and a thermometer.

No reliable sample of m-chlorobenzophenone was available therefore the 1H NMR spectrum of m-IBP (Figure 14) was compared to that of the unsubstituted BP (Figure 15) and the published spectra of monosubstituted halobenzenes. The 1H NMR spectrum obtained for BP under the same conditions as that of m-IBP gave 6 7.48(t 4H), 7.59(t 2H), and 7.81 (d 4H) while a published 1H NMR spectrum of BP gave:56 nam st c assisnment benzophenone a c O C a.(4H) 7.53 /’ la b c c.\\ .b b.(2H) 7.61 a a c.(4H) 7.83 The published spectrum of BP matches nicely with the experimental one establishing the assignments of the peaks in the latter spectrum. The peaks at 67.48(4H) are due to the meta protons, at 6 7.59(2H) are the para protons and at 6 7.81(4H) are the ortho protons. In m-IBP's 1H NMR spectrum the protons on the unsubstituted ring give rise to peaks that bear a strong resemblance to BP's 1H NMR spectrum: I d O c 1’ | a 9'\~ e C b f a 13 NMR p—ipg 6, ppm p.32 BP 6, ppm J. 52 7.92 (d,lI-I) 3.70 c 7.77 (t,3H) 7.08 7.81 (d,4H) 7.00 5.43 b 7.61 (t,1H) 7.30 7.59 (t,2H) 7.73 7.30 _. 6.95 a 7.49 (t,2H) 7.73 7.48 (t,4H) ‘7.68 7.03 6.95 7.22 (t,1H) 7.78 The remaining peaks in m-IBP's spectrum are the result of the protons on the substituted ring. Introduction of a halogen into one of the aromatic ring causes both para- and diamagnetic shifts of the protons as seen in the published spectra of some monosubstituted halobenzenes (Table VII). Iodine causes the largest effect on the protons of all three halogens. The protons ortho to the iodine are shifted downfield while the meta protons are shifted upfield. The para protons remain essentially uneffected. The two most downfield set of peaks in m-IBP's 1H NMR spectrum result from the two protons ortho to iodine. The isolated ortho proton (d) situated between iodine and the carbonyl group gives rise to the singlet at 6 8.13 (1H) while the other proton (g) results in the doublet at m 7.92 (1H). The proton para to iodine (e) gives a signal superimposed upon that due to the ortho protons on the unsubstituted ring (c). This is the cause of the apparent triplet at 6 7.77 (3H). The proton meta to iodine (f) gives a triplet at 6 7.22 (1H). The doublet at 6 7.32 is probably due to unidentified impurities. 49 ectra of some sim le We. a .1 s st'tu DQEQ §§I§Q§B§§ chlorobenzene57 bromobenzene58 b 08 iodobenzene59 c a.(2H) 7.09 ppm a b.(lH) 7.30 ppm c.(2H) 7.70 ppm Tapis_ylilp_ . v'o s ence s ect a of n e es Ultraviolet Phosphorescence Spectraa Spectra (maxima) (0-0 band) n,x* KQLQnge Amer epmax Krupp benzophenone 346 60 41960 m-iodobenzophenone 347 106 418 p-iodobenzophenone 348 173 422 a” Amax in nm, 6 max in M"1 cm'l. b. in 1:1 methanol-ethanol mixture at 77° K; irradiated at 3130 A. en enes . ass nment a.(SH) 7.31 ppm a;(3H) 7.00-7.30 ppm b.(2H) 7.43 ppm 50 . .mza ow 0>fiucamu mHUQU cw msocchoNcmnooofiua Ho Eauuommm mzz :H .ea musofim .506 E 6 m6 . 0;. mg. 9m mam 0.6 ¥l¥-l>lk‘ul\f IrrblLLfkrlelurLlnrurrfl M - 1 _ .isxflellkflrl .inxL’KPlelk .17.,-;.-.,..,..% 31a "‘\ 51 .mzs on m>wumHou maoao :fl 0cocmcmo~con mo mzz ma Ema o 6.8 of. 0.x .mH ousoflm o.m W 52 c: o H 4.)

The mixture was cooled to about 5°C in an ice bath. Sodium nitrite (1.26 grams, 0.0183 mole) in 8.5ml sulfuric acid was added dropwise. This was left to stir at 5°C for three hours, then slowly warmed to room temperature followed by addition to a 90ml ice-water mixture containing potassium iodide (3.35 grams, 0.0202 mole) and copper metal dust (0.19 gram, 0.0030 mole) in 14ml water. The mixture was heated to 60°C for one hour or until all nitrogen gas evolution ceased followed by treatment with 80ml 10% sodium sulfate. This was filtered and the brown residue was recrystallized three times in hot methanol. The product was further purified by column chromatography on a silica gel column using ethylacetate-hexane as the eluent. p-IBP: 55% yield. m.p. 95-98°c.

Figure 18. 58 1H NMR (coc13) 6 7.8 (d of d, 4H), 7.6 (t, 1H), 7.5 (t, 4H). The 1H NMR spectra of p-IBP (Figure 19) closely resembles that of p-CIBP (Figure 20). In both spectra a quartet appeared downfield at 7.8 ppm (4H) relative to CHC136 7.25 ppm.63 This quartet corresponds to BP's ortho protons which occur at 7.81 ppm. In the case of p-IBP, the iodine causes the ortho protons on the substituted ring to resonate slightly downfield to the ortho protons on the unsubstituted ring. Chlorine does not have such a pronounced effect; there the quartet at 7.8 ppm in 1H NMR for p-ClBP resembles less a doublet of doublets. The small triplet at 7.6 ppm (IE) is due to the lone para proton in both p-ClBP and p-IBP since BP's para protons occur at 7.59 ppm. The meta protons in the para substituted BPs gave rise to a triplet at 7.5 ppm (43) which corresponds to BP's meta protons at 7.58 ppm. The singlet at 6 7.25 ppm is due to the lone proton in CHC13. n ' ' a s The stock solutions of the ketone with standard were prepared by weighing out the required amount of ketone and internal standard into a volumetric flask and filling to volume with solvent. Individual flasks for the quenching runs were made up by pipetting an equivalent amount of stock ketone-standard solution into numbered 5ml volumetric flasks containing the required amount of quencher and filling to volume with solvent.

The culture tubes were previously cleaned by boiling in soapy distilled water ' overnight followed by at least four rinse cycles in boiling distilled water. v The ketone solutions were degassed by attaching the tubes to a vacuum line over No. 00 one-hole rubber stoppers on individual stopcocks. The solutions were slowly frozen in liquid nitrogen, then a vacuum was applied for several minutes. The samples were allowed to thaw and the cycle repeated. After the fourth freezing and evacuation, the tubes. were sealed off with gas-oxygen torch. All volumetric pipets and flasks used were class-A volumetric ware. They were cleaned in the same manner as the photolysis culture tubes were. Irradiation for quantitative analysis were performed in a "merry-go-round" apparatus with a Hanovia 450-W medium pressure lamp contained in a water-cooled quartz immersion well. Corning 7-83 glass filters were used to isolate the 3650A line and a 1cm path of 0.002 M potassium chromate in 1% aqueous potassium carbonate was used to isolate the 3130A line. - e 8 All quenching experiments employing cyclopentane, cyclooctane and carbon tetrachloride as solvents were carried 64 out according to the procedure previously described.7 The cyclopentane and cyclooctane solutions were analyzed by HPLC, while the carbon tetrachloride solutions were analyzed via g.c. In order to obtain the large range of quencher concentrations found in all of the experiments of p-IBP, it was necessary to weigh naphthalene into each individual 5 ml flask separately. Irradiations in carbon tetrachloride resulted in a pronounced color change from clear colorless before irradiation to clear deep purple indicating the formation of iodine. The iodine concentration was monitored on a UV-Vis spectrophotometer. The wavelength of maximum absorption of iodine in the visible region of the spectrum, 514 nm, was determined by scanning both a solution of an irradiated tube and a prepared solution of known iodine concentration in carbon tetrachloride. The extinction coefficient, 6, was determined by measuring the absorption at 514 nm of various iodine-carbon tetrachloride solutions of known iodine concentrations. This 6 value, 833 M'lcm"1 was then employed in the calculations of iodine concentration. W For irradiations carried out in methanol-ethanol solvent mixture, the optimum solvent ratio was obtained by irradiating both ketones in various alcohol mixtures. The ratio that gave the highest °BP value for both ketones, 9:1 by volume, was then employed in all experiments. The optimum t-butylalcohol- 65 ethanol solvent ratio, 8:2 by volume, was obtained in a similar manner and used in all experiments. After irradiation the alcohol solvent of each tube was gently removed on a rotovap and replaced with purified benzene. The solutions were then analyzed on HPLC. n-Octanethiol served as the hydrogen donor in the irradiations of both ketones in acetonitrile. In order to maximize 93p, both ketones were irradiated in varying amounts of thiol. With steadily increasing thiol concentrations, ’BP values increased and then leveled off. The thiol concentration at which 03p first levels off is then used in all experiments in acetonitrile. The irradiated samples were analyzed by g.c. The IB was vacuum distilled before its use in the preparation of the samples. The refractive index, “200, of IE and that of purified benzene, B, were measured to determine the amount of B in IB. The nZOD were measured on a Bausch and Lomb instrument. IB was found to contain no B before irradiation. n20D experimental literature mg __v_al_u.e Jigs— 13 1.6187 1.6200 B 1.500 1.5011 The sealed tubes were prepared in the normal manner, irradiated at 3650A for two hours and analyzed by GC/MS. No photoproducts were observed. The irradiation of m— or p-IBP in cyclopentane at 3650A for two hours would normally give 66 approximately 24 to 33 percent conversion of starting ketone to BP photoproduct. The g.c. trace of the irradiated sample is given in Figure 23. The mass spectra of each peak in the g.c. are given in Figures 24 to 27. A benzene peak was not observed on the g.c. trace. The first peak of the g.c. trace, retention time (r.t.) being 1 min. 20 s is due to the solvent. The second peak, r.t. between 2 min. 34 s and 3 min. is the result of IB (Figure 24). n-Pentylbenzoate gave the third peak, r.t. between 5 min. 10 s and 5 min. 44 s (Figure 25) and BP the fourth peak, r.t. between 6 min. 10 s and 6 min. 48 s (Figure 26). The last peak, r.t. between 9 min. 20 s and 9 min. 52 s (Figure 27) is due to the benzopinacol. Under similar conditions IC's g.c. r.t. would be between 2 min. 18 s to 2 min. 46 s.

X. 1: All quantum yields for the photoproduct formation or the starting ketone disappearance were determined relative to the acetophenone formation from valerophenone in benzene on parallel irradiation of samples of equivalent volumes at 3130A. The quantum yield of acetophenone (AP) formation has been determined to be 0.33 for valerophenone (VP) in benzene. Conversion of VP was limited to 10%. (area of AP) Eq. 5. [AP] = RF [Standard] (area of Standard) by g.c. (area of AP) Eq. 6. [AP] = RF (area of Standard) by l.c. where benzene serves as the standard. From the concentration of AP, the amount of light absorbed, Ia in einstein per liter, can be determined: [AP] Eq. 7. Ia = 0.33 76 The quantum yield of product formation, 4p, equals the concentration of the product, [P], formed, divided by the light absorbed, Ia: -911. Ia Eq. 8 .p The quantum yields of product formation from m-‘and p-IBP in the various solvents are listed in Table XII. The concentration of BP resulting from the irradiation of m- and p-IBPs were calculated according to Eq. 4. The value of O BP°/’BP was determined using the following equation: 939° , [BP]° .BP [3?] Eq. 9. where ’BP0 and [BP]° are the quantum yield of BP formation and BP concentration, respectively, in the absence of quencher. In the presence of quencher 03p and [BP] are used. According to the following equation64 Eq. 10 “o = 1 + kg? [Q] o the 43p°/ 93p values of each quenching run are plotted as a function of [Q] to give a linear Stern-Volmer plot with a slope equal to qu .

Their mass spectra were compared with that of the actual compound stored in the library of the GCMS (Figures 29 to 37). The mass spectra of BP, m- and p-CIBP, and C2C16 were contained in the library while IC's spectrum was not. The peak at m/e 41 in IC's mass spectrum (Figure 32) is due to the +CH2CH=CH2 fragment while the 69 peak is the result of the cyclopentyl radical. The monatomic iodine gives the 127 peak while the 196 peak, the parent peak, is the iodocyclopentane cation. 81 .AchHm .oncne .AooHcmoH .AmmvmmH .Awmcmap m\5 m: .mcocmcmoNcmnooowlfi mo coHHMflomuuH may Eoum mCHUHSmmu mcocmcmoNcmn mo Enzuommm mmmz .mm musmflm can am. ew_ co. oNH co. om am a? ax: >F...Lp:. 7...»:..—.r>..r.r.H..»L.L.Lr+L._. .rh..r-..£.CL.»LL:..H.»LL.FE_:.. . . mm_ _;_ mm_ -_ m__ mm mm mm __ mm ow um mmH in l N” 1 1 Y.e.on mm“ cover 1 mos H.o.oo_ am_. - mm.. mh_¢3 “mum “wnazqm .ommmm uu_m m.

Proton magnetic resonance spectra at 250 MHz were recorded on a Bruker WM-ZSOMHz Fourier Transform Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectrophotometer. All chemical shifts were reported in parts per million (ppm) down field from tetramethylsilane (TMS). The ultraviolet absorption spectra were measured in 10mm cells on a Varian Cary 219 Spectrophotometer, courtesy of Dr. Chang. Cyclopentane served as the solvent. All extinction coefficients, 6, in the solvents used in the photochemical experiments are reported in units of 14"1cm"1 on Table XIII. The phosphorescence spectra of both m-IBP and p-IBP were performed on a Perkin-Elmer MPF-44A fluorescence Spectrophotometer attached to a Perkin-Elmer 150 Xenon power supply. The emission spectra were recorded on a Perkin-Elmer recorder. A solution of 0.001M p-IBP in a mixed solvent of methanol-ethanol (1:1 ratio by volume) was placed in a curved bottom nmr tube. The tube was carefully inserted into a liquid nitrogen-filled, quartz window Dewar flask and placed in the cell chamber of the spectrofluorometer. The sample was irradiated at 3130A and the emission scanned from 3600 to 6000A. The emission spectra were recorded. A solution of 0.001M m-IBP was treated in a similar manner. The emission was 91 Table XIII.

Infrared absorption spectra of m-IBP and p-IBP were recorded on a Perkin-Elmer 599 Infrared Spectrophotometer. Carbon tetrachloride was used as the solvent. All absorptions are reported in wave numbers (cm'l). Melting points were taken on a Thomas Hoover capillary melting point apparatus. All melting points are uncorrected. Elemental analysis of m-IBP and p-IBP were performed by Spang Microanalytical Laboratory, Eagle Harbor, Michigan, 49951. ' All mass spec and GCMS were recorded on a Finnigan 4000 GCMS by Ernest Oliver and later by Richard Oleson. After irradiation the ketone solutions were analyzed by GCMS. The spectra of the photoproducts were compared to the mass spectra of the actual compounds stored in the library of the Finnigan 4000 GCMS. A11 analysis for product formation was performed on either a gas chromatograph or on a liquid chromatograph. The g.c. used were Varian Aerograph Model 1200 and 1400 gas chromatographs fitted with a 5 ft. by 1/8 inch column for an on column injection and containing 5% SE30 on Chrom W. Peaks were recorded on a Leeds and Northrup recorder and areas measured on an Infratronics CRS 309 digital integrator. The l.c. used was a Beckman Model 332 high performance gradient liquid chromatograph attached to a Perkin-Elmer LC-75 spectrophotometric detector. An Ultrasphere Si 5 pm 4.6 x 250 94 nm column was employed at a constant temperature of 35.1°C and eluted with a 98.5:1.5 hexane-ethylacetate solvent mixture at a flow rate of 1.5 ml/min. The area ratios of the product and starting ketones relative to an internal standard were measured by a Hewlett-Packard 3380A digital integrator. TABLES 96 Table 1.
