Abstract
Voltammetry at an irradiated platinum channel electrode is used to mon itor photosubstitution reactions of the Group VIA hexacarbonyls, M(CO) (6) (M = Cr,Mo,W), in acetonitrile solution, in which up to three CO l igands are replaced by solvent molecules. It is shown that this method ological approach can be used to suggest reaction mechanisms and to qu antify rates of photoreactions, so giving estimates of quantum yields.
