Abstract

Although semiconductors like Ti02 and CdS are available as electron-transfer sensitizers to effect photooxidation of ali- phatic aminesl and olefins,2 no organic counterpart is known to simulate similar oxidations. As aromatic compounds with electron donating substituents exhibit photoinduced electron transfer to molecular oxygen3 as well as electron ejection in polar solvents forming arene radical cations,4 we envisaged that instead of using semiconductors, these ...
