Jl. Shi et al., EPR STUDY ON THE COMPLEX FORMED BY CHARGE-TRANSFER PROCESS BETWEEN GROUND-STATE ACCEPTOR CHLORANIL AND 9 DONORS, Chinese journal of chemistry, 16(5), 1998, pp. 397-403
EPR study showed that the semi-quinone radical anion of chloranil (TCQ
) was formed in a charge-transfer process between ground state chloran
il as acceptor and each one of the following ground state donors, i.e.
, N, N-diethyl aniline (DEA), phenothiazine (PTZ), carbazole (CBZ), py
rene (PY), ferrocene (FRO), triphenylphosphine (TPP), triethylamine (T
EA), anthracene (AN) and N, N-diethyl-3-aminophenyl eater of palmitic
acid (DPP). Our results indicate that there is a tunneling effect for
the ground-state charge-transfer process between chloranil and the don
or.
