Abstract

Fluorescence detected magnetic resonance (FDMR) is applied to study ion−molecule reactions in squalane (2,6,10,15,19,23-hexamethyltetracosane). Several time-resolved pulsed FDMR experiments are suggested to measure rate constants of scavenging by aromatic solutes. These constants vary from 5 × 108 to 1.6 × 109 mol-1 dm3 s-1. The ion−molecule reactions of radical cations are somewhat slower than reactions of radical anions. The scavenging of the alkane hole is significantly faster than ion−molecule reactions of molecular cations. The mobile hole decays on a time scale of several tens of nanoseconds. These FDMR results are in accord with our recent work on transient absorption spectroscopy in radiolysis of squalane.
