Electron Transfer Activation - A Selective Photooxidation Method for the Preparation of Aromatic Adehydes and Ketones

A selective and mild photocatalytic procedure for benzylic oxydations with 9,10-dicyanoanthracene (DCA), an usual electron acceptor, in presence of methyl viologen (MV2+) and FeCl2 has been developped.Key words: Singlet Electron Transfer; benzylic oxidation; hydroperoxides

PHOTOOXYGENATIONS PAR TRANSFERT D'ELECTRON SENSIBILISEES PAR LE DICYANO-9,10 ANTHRACENE. ROLE DU SOLVANT ET FORMATION D'OXYGENE SINGULET.

Photooxygenation of naphtalenic compounds sensitized by electron acceptors like 9,10 dicyanoanthracene (DCA) is shown to proceed by two distinct ways depending on the solvent polarity.In a polar solvent superoxide ion (O2-.) as well as singlet oxygen (1O2*) are involved while in a non polar solvent only singlet oxygen is produced.
