Abstract

A pronounced solvent viscosity and polarity dependence of the magnetic field effect was found for polymethylene-linked radical ion pairs generated by photoinduced intramolecular electron transfer in compounds of the type pyrene-(CH 2) n-N,N-dimethylaniline, with n = 7–16. This is interpreted in terms of the general radical pair mechanism, i.e. the nuclear hyperfine interaction mechanism including a spin-exchange interaction, modulated by the stochastic folding motion of the linking CH 2 chain which leads to a “motional deformation” of the reaction yield spectra.
