49. (c) Tetraethylammonium cyanide was tested as well, but problems arose with the necessary removal of the salt before GC analysis.
50. This method of measuring IEs is both quantitatively superior to and significantly faster and cheaper than analysis by GC/MS.
51. The choice of 1,3,5-tri-tert-butylbenzene was based on the condition that it absorbs >99% of the incoming light, that its radical cation can oxidize naphthalene (the oxidation potentials of naphthalene and 1,3.5-tri-tert-butylbenzene are 1.60 and 2.01 V, respectively), and that the bulky substituent will decrease the rate of back electron transfer.

74. A normal equilibrium isotope effect on the electron transfer between an organic radical cation and its neutral parent has recently also been observed for thianthrene: (a) Liu, Z.-L.; Lu, J.-M.; Chen, P.; Wang, X.-L.; Wen, X.-L.; Yang, L.; Liu, Y.-C.

80. Attack on the radical cation by the nucleophile in the solvent cage was also proposed by Lemmetyinen and co-workers for the photoamination of phenanthrene in the presence of DCB, on the basis of flash photolysis data: Nieminen, K.; Niiranen, J.; Lemmetyinen, H.; Sychtchikova, I.

87. This suggests that the diffusing apart of 1,3,5-tri-tert-butylbenzene radical cation and DCB radical anion is more effective than in the corresponding case of naphthalene radical cations; cf. ref 33.
