Abstract

Chemically induced dynamic electron polarization (CIDEP) created in the quenching of triplet naphthalene by galvinoxyl were investigated by time-resolved Fourier-transform electron paramagnetic resonance (FT-EPR) measurements with monitoring a free induction decay signal of a pulsed microwave irradiation. Transient FT-EPR spectra of galvinoxyl with CIDEP were observed in various nonpolar solvents with different viscosity. A transient FT-EPR signal phase shows remarkable dependence on the viscosity: FT-EPR signal phases were absorption and emission in the solvents with low and high viscosity, respectively. Time evolutions of the FT-EPR signal of galvinoxyl were well simulated by a model of the radical-triplet pair mechanism (RTPM) for CIDEP. A sign of theJ value in the triplet naphthalene-galvinoxyl system in various solvents were discussed on the basis of the sign rule in the RTPM and the transient FT-EPR signal phase. One of possible explanation for the solvent viscosity dependence of the transient FT-EPR signal phase was pressented on the basis of hypothetical model of theJ value.
