In par-ticular the presence of a salt in a reaction medium involving an ion pair brings about a …

Ketoprofen (KP) and fenofibrate, respectively, anti‐inflammatory and hypolipidemiant
agents, promote anormal photosensitivity in patients and may induce photoallergic cross …

Fundamental aspects of photoinduced electron transfer processes have received
considerable attention in recent years in view of their relevance to a number of important …

Photolysis of N-nitrosamines in acidic acetonitrile produces aminium radical cations via
protonation of the initially-formed aminyl radicals. The kinetics of these species can be …

The effect of the molecular geometry of diaryl and arylalky ketones on the rate of intersystem
crossing (ISC) was investigated by employing picosecond pump—probe studies of the …

Donor and acceptor (D–A) compounds based on benzophenone (BP) and carbazole (Cz)
were recently reported to exhibit an extraordinary long afterglow phosphorescence in the …

Efficient photorelease (Φ= 0.7) of carboxylic acids is achieved with a covalently linked
mediator (benzophenone) protecting group (N-alkyl-4-picolinium ester) molecule. The …

Picosecond absorption spectroscopy is used to examine the dynamics of the quenching of
the first excited singlet and triplet states of benzophenone by 1, 4-diazabicyclo [2.2. 2] …
