Abstract

Abstract The reaction mechanism of photo-induced electron transfer reactions from hexamethyldisilane to quinones in chloroform solution was studied at room temperature by means of a CIDNP technique. With irradiation, the formation of the corresponding mono-and di-trimethylsilyl hydroquinones and trimethylsilyl chloride was confirmed by GC, GC-MS, and 1 H NMR spectra. The absorptive CIDNP phase of the mono-trimethylsilyl hydroquinone ...
