128. For the copper-free [2]rotaxane the rate of photoinduced electron transfer from the Zn porphyrin excited state to the Au porphyrin is 273 x 108 s-1 (as calculated from Ref. [76c]), which compares well with k14 = 178 x 108 s-1.

175. In acetonitrile solution, p-NO2C6H4CH2Br shows a band with λmax = 273 nm which does not interfere in the visible light absorption of Cu1N4. On reduction of p-NO2C6H4CH2Br, a benzylic radical is formed which undergoes a fast dimerization reaction. In the presence of dioxygen, the benzylic radical gives rise to a series of reaction which end with formation of benzaldehyde [117].

179. Since Cu.312+ is not photosensitive and does not exhibit any long-lived excited state, the reduction step cannot be induced by light (see Refs. [95-97]).
