  • Title: Laser photolysis studies of ω-bond dissociation in aromatic carbonyls with a C-C triple bond stimulated by triplet sensitization.
    Author: Yamaji M, Horimoto A, Marciniak B.
    Journal: Phys Chem Chem Phys; 2017 Jul 14; 19(26):17028-17035. PubMed ID: 28638898.
    Abstract:
    We have prepared three types of carbonyl compounds, benzoylethynylmethyl phenyl sulfide (2@SPh), (p-benzoyl)phenylethynylmethyl phenyl sulfide (3@SPh) and p-(benzoylethynyl)benzyl phenyl sulfide (4@SPh) with benzoyl and phenylthiylmethyl groups, which are interconnected with a C-C triple bond and a phenyl ring. Laser flash photolysis of 3@SPh and 4@SPh in acetonitrile provided the transient absorption spectra of the corresponding triplet states where no chemical reactions were recognized. Upon laser flash photolysis of 2@SPh, the absorption band due to the phenylthiyl radical (PTR) was obtained, indicating that the C-S bond cleaved in the excited state. Triplet sensitization of these carbonyl compounds using acetone and xanthone was conducted using laser photolysis techniques. The formation of triplet 3@SPh was seen in the transient absorption, whereas the PTR formation was observed for 2@SPh and 4@SPh, indicating that the triplet states were reactive for the C-S bond dissociation. The C-S bond dissociation mechanism for 4@SPh upon triplet sensitization is discussed in comparison with those for 2@SPh and 3@SPh.
