It is found by nanosecond laser flash photolysis at 355 nm that triplet energy transfer from triplet benzophenone ('BP\*) to N,Ndimethylaminonaphthalene (RNMe,) occurs to yield triplet RNMe, with an efftciency of 0.58 in acetonitrile ( ACN) whereas electron transfer from RNMea to 3BP\* takes place t

โฆ Synopsis
It is found that the triplet-triplet energy transfer (ET) reaction between triplet benzophenone ('BP*) and l-naphthol (ROH) is competitive with the hydrogen atom abstraction (HA) reaction. The rate constant of ET is enhanced with an increase of solvent polarity while that of HA is reduced. A possible explanation for these behaviors suggests that the electronic character of 3BP* affects the reactivity in ET and HA.

The rate constants (kHA and klQ) for the hydrogen atom abstraction (HA) and induced-quenching (IQ) processes between triplet benzophenone (3Bp \*) and halogenated toluenes (XTL) were determined by means of nanosecond laser flash photolysis techniques. It was found that the klQ value increased propor
