The chemistry of diphenylcarbene and fluorenylidene in cyclohexane was investigated. An examination of the product distributions, radical scavenging experiments and isotopic fractionation established that diphenylcarbene reacts with cyclohexane predominantly, if not exclusively, through its triplet state whereas fluorenylidene exhibits substantial chemistry from its low lying singlet state in addition
