Notes:
Various free radicals formed during UV.-irradiation of aliphatic dicarboxylic acids in aqueous and methanolic solution are identified by ESR.-spectroscopy. Their structures point to α-cleavage and photoreduction as the dominant primary photochemical decay processes. The relative contributions of these reactions to the overall photodecomposition depend on solvent and degree of α-alkylation of the acid. Emission ESR.-spectra are found for radicals formed by C, CO-bond cleavage of α-dimethyl substituted acids. The polarization is referred to the triplet mechanism of CIDEP. and indicates this cleavage reaction occurs from a triplet molecular state.
