PHOTOSELECTION AS A METHOD OF CONTROL FOR PHOTOREVERSIBLE REACTIONS IN THE SOLID-PHASE

The kinetics of a reversible photochemical reaction under conditions o f photoselection under the polarized or nonpolarized light is consider ed. It is shown that such reactions, when conducted in the solid phase , yield stationary concentrations of reagents that could not be attain ed in the liquid phase, and that these concentrations can be changed b y varying the degree of polarization of the photolyzing light. It is p roposed to consider the protoselection as a new factor that allows one to control the conversion degree of photochemical reactions occurring in the solid phase.
