Abstract
The photochemistry of p‐fluoranil in dioxane was studied by electron spin resonance (ESR) and the ESR‐rotating sector technique. The transient photoradical is identified as the p‐tetrafluorobenzosemiquinone neutral radical with a hyperfine splitting of 1.1 gauss for the hydroxy proton and the fluorine hyperfine splittings of 3.8 and 14.1 gauss for the meta and ortho fluorines, respectively. The radicals decayed by self‐disproportionation with a second‐order rate constant at room temperature of approximately 3.2 × 10^9^M^−1^s^−1^. The activation energy of the decay process is found to be about 2.4 ± 0.4 kcal/mole.

The radicals observed were inadvertently formed b y gas discharge on the fibers during drying in vacuum when the vacuum was checked by a Tesla coil tester. The location on the fiber surface also explains the high orientation of radicals. No radicals can be detected upon washing and drying if no plas
