Abstract
The electron transfer between excited‐state 9,10‐anthracenedione (325 nm) and sodium tetraphenylborate (tetraphenylboron sodium) in acetonitrile solution is shown to form the radical anion of 9,10‐anthracenedione together with the BPh radical. The latter is known to decompose to biphenyl and other Products. A new channel electrode methodology is developed and characterized to deduce the mechanism of the reaction and to quantify its kinetics.
