Abstract
The reaction mechanism for photosensitized reduction of methylviologen, MV2+, through the triplet-triplet energy transfer from organic dyes such as fluorescein, erythrosine, or acriflavine to 9-anthracenecarboxylate in the presence of triethanolamine is studied.
ChemInform Abstract
The reaction mechanism for photosensitized reduction of methylviologen, MV2+, through the triplet-triplet energy transfer from organic dyes such as fluorescein, erythrosine, or acriflavine to 9-anthracenecarboxylate in the presence of triethanolamine is studied. From the kinetic analysis of MV·+ formation it is estimated that both the efficiency of the energy transfer and of the electron transfer from triplet anthracenecarboxylate to MV2+ are close to unity.
