Lfv. Ferreira et al., TIME-RESOLVED ABSORPTION AND EMISSION-SPECTRA OF TRIPLET-STATE BETA-PHENYLPROPIOPHENONE ADSORBED ON SILICALITE, SPECT ACT A, 51(8), 1995, pp. 1385-1388
Time-resolved triplet absorption and emission spectra of the title com
pound were obtained using the diffuse reflectance laser flash photolys
is (DRLFP) technique. The decays were non-exponential, indicating a no
n-homogeneous distribution of adsorption sites and different conformat
ional restrictions. Dispersive kinetics enabled us to obtain an averag
e rate constant for the decay of (k) over bar = (6.9 +/- 1.3) x 10(5)
s(-1) and a width of distribution of gamma = 3.4.
