The direct the sensitized photoisomerization of 1,1,1-trifluoro-5,5-dimethylhexane-2,4-dionatochromium(III)
Abstract
cis- and trans-1,1,1-Trifluoro-5,5-dimethylhexane-2,4-dionatochromium(III) have been photolysed and found to reach a photostationary state in which the two isomers are in the same ratio as at thermally-induced equilibrium; quenching of the photoreaction of triplet methyl o-benzyloxyphenylglyoxyate occurs by energy transfer to the metal complex.
