Abstract

Pulse radiolysis and steady-state radiolysis experiments describing the radical and electron transfer reactions of C84 are reported here for the first time. C84 reacts readily with radiolytically generated chloromethyl (•CCl3) and trichloromethylperoxyl (CCl3OO•) radicals in CCl4. The formation of the radical adduct has been confirmed from its characteristic absorption in the UV (320 nm) and visible (480 nm). Radical-induced oxidation in 1,2-dichloroethane (1,2-DCE) resulted in a short lived transient absorbing at 920 nm. Reduction of C84 in toluene/2-propanol/acetone could be conveniently followed by formation of an absorption band with an absorption maximum at 960 nm.
