✦ Synopsis


Am&-The reduction of pyrene (Py) at a mercury channel electrode is studied in acetonitrile solution, both in the dark and under conditions where the pyrene radical anion (Py-.) is photoexcited, using a wavelength of 501.7 nm. In the dark a reversible one-electron process occurs forming the radical anion. However, upon photoexcitation of the electrogenerated radical anion, photocurrents are observed, and

Two mechanisms are responsible for the flash induced ionization of peryiene in aeetonitrile: a bimotecular reaction between an excited and an unexcited perylene molecule. and, at shorter exciting wzvelengths, direct dissociation of some higher excited singlet state.
