11. 12. 12 In the absence of an appropriate reaction partner, ketones may undergo two classical intramolecular elimination reactions. 13). In the presence of an appropriate monomer, the photogenerated radicals may induce polymerization and cross-linking reactions. These include technologically relevant processes such as curing of photoresists, dental glues, and all kind of surface coatings. 13 Norrish Type I elimination. 14). 14 Norrish Type II elimination. 3 Charge-Transfer (CT) States Intramolecular CT When a molecule contains both electron-donating and electron-accepting functional groups, a new absorption band may be observable.
Full and dashed vertical arrows symbolize electronic excitation and emission processes, respectively. On the left side of the figure, the energy minima of ground and excited state are located at the same position, indicating that the geometries of the two states are identical. This is the case for rigid molecules. Contrary to that, a displaced excited state is depicted on the right side exemplifying the most common case of a nonrigid molecule. According to theory, the probability of a transition between vibrational states is higher when the overlap of the vibrational wave functions is better.
9 25) These different temperature dependences rationalize a very early observation of sunlight-induced protein phosphorescence by the Bolognese physician J. Beccari in the eighteenth century. Only when the hands of his patient were washed with cold water before going into the sunlight, the skin was phosphorescing. At room temperature, oxygen quenching was too fast. 26) One cycle consists of cooling the solution to liquid nitrogen temperature, evacuating for removing any gas, sealing from the atmosphere, and thawing to room temperature again to enable the escape of dissolved gases.
