Description

Cations of 1,1-diphenylethylene (DPE) were studied in electron-scavenger matrices in the temperature range 90-130 K. Nanosecond and microsecond pulse-radiolysis, with optical absorption spectroscopy in times from 10-8 to 10-2s was used. The bands of the absorption spectra are interpreted on the basis of a simplified reaction mechanism and kinetic calculations. Reaction rate constants for the dimerization of the radical cations of DPE are given. (author)
