Photochemical reactions of radical-anions $$H_2 S_{\bar 2}^ \cdot $$ in solid phasein solid phase

Abstract

Photochemical reactions of radical-anions\(H_2 S_{\bar 2}^ \cdot \) with incident light of 405 and 365 nm were studied quantitatively in matrices of 6M LiCl, 4M CH3COONa, and C2H5OH. the radical-anions were shown to undergo reaction of S−S and S−H bond dissociation. Relative efficiency of the observed processes depends on the energy of incident light, on the nature of matrix, and on the degree of self-association of hydrogen sulphide.
