N. Yasuta et al., Mechanism of photosensitized chemiluminescence of 2-methyl-6-phenylimidazo[1,2-a]pyrazin-3(7H)-one (CLA) in aqueous solution, CHEM LETT, (6), 1999, pp. 451-452
The photosensitized chemiluminescence (CL) of 2-methyl-6-phenylimidazo [1,2
-a]pyrazin-3(7H)-one(CLA) in aqueous solution of Rose Bengal near pH 7 has
been investigated. Three time profiles (fast decay, fast rise-and-decay, an
d very slow decay components) of CL were observed at 380 nm. The former two
terms were due to the Type II and Type I reactions, respectively. The inte
rmediates of the each reactions were apparently different.
