Abstract
Reaction of p- tert-oxocalix[4]arene in acetonitrile (CH 3CN) by 308nm laser pulses was investigated to understand its mechanism as polymer stabilizer. Four main absorption bands were observed at 300nm, 400nm, 460nm and 540nm. The 300nm absorption was assigned to the absorption of phenoxy radical, and the 460nm and 540nm were triple state absorption. It was concluded that the relative stable phenoxy radical mediate was formed through intramolecular energy transition of carbonyl triplet after laser excitation in CH 3CN. The formation mechanism of phenoxyl radical was quite different from that in cyclohexane (C 6H 12), which was cooperation of two-photon process and one-photon process.
