Radical pair recombination stereoselectivity as a probe of magnetic isotope and magnetic field effects
Abstract
Photolysis of meso- or dl-2,4-diphenylpentan-3-one within NaY zeolites, coadsorbed with a chiral inductor, lead to enantioselective radical pair recombinations which are sensitive to 13C isotope effects, but insensitive towards external magnetic field effects.
