Laser Flash, Laser-Drop, and Lamp Photolysis of 1,3-Dichloro-1,3-diphenylpropane. One- versus Two-Photon Reaction Pathways
摘要:
Low intensity irradiation of 1,3-dichloro-1,3-diphenylpropane (1) in cyclohexane leads to the formation of 3-chloro-1,3-diphenylpropyl radical (2) through homolytic C-CI bond cleavage. Radical 2 gives rise to final products typical of free radical reactions. Neither 1,2-diphenylcyclopropanes (6) nor 3-cyclohexyl-1,3-diphenylpropene (20) are obtained under these conditions. Nevertheless, high intensity laser irradiation of the initially formed monoradical 2 leads to the 1,3-diphenylpropenyl radical (3) detected with nanosecond techniques. This intermediate is completely trapped by the cyclohexyl radicals generated in the medium to yield 20. Photolysis of 1 with the laser-drop technique leads to the cyclopropanes 6 as major photoproducts.
Laserphotolysis of the title compound leads to two-photon processes indicating the involvement of the 1,3-diphenylpropanediyl biradical (12) and the 1,3-diphenylallyl radical (10).
