Abstract

Light-induced electron-transfer reactions are being studied as possible energy conversion or storage processes. One such reaction of a light-induced electron-transfer reaction and subsequent electron- and atom-transfer processes, which are at least partially reversible, is reported herein. The specific reaction studied was the photooxidation of triethylamine by excited state o-quinones. The energy stored in the overall process is modest, and the degree of reversibility is limited by the reactivity of the amine oxidation products. 33 refs.
