The photoreduction behavior of p-nitroaniline (pNA) in the presence of N,N-dimethylaniline (DMA) induced by both steady-state (365 nm) and laser (337 nm) irradiation has been analyzed. The stoichiometry of the photoreduction reaction revealed that several amino radicals derived from DMA were generat

β¦ Synopsis
The polymerization rate of methyl methacrylate photosensitized by p-nitroacetanilide in the presence of triethylamine was measured as a function of the amine and monomer concentrations. The polymerization proceeds readily in high-polarity media (acetonitrile/monomer) but is negligible in nonpolar media. The polymerization rate increases with the amine concentration up to 0.15M. Further increase in amine concentration does not change the polymerization rate. A similar behavior was observed for the photobleaching of the nitro compound. ESR studies show the formation of a nitro and an amine free radical, the latter free radical being the active species that adds to the monomer.
