Abstract
In irradiated methanolic solutions of triphenylphosphine (Ph3P) deaerated with argon or saturated with N2O a transient spectrum has been detected. This spectrum is attributed to Ph3PCH2OH and a value of k(CH2OH+Ph3P) = 8.8 x 109mol−1dm3S− has been detemined. No evidence has been obtained for a reaction between esol−1 and Ph3P in methanol.
The gamma-irradiation of oxygen-saturated methanolic solutions of Ph3P have shown that, under these conditions, Ph3P is oxidized to Ph3PO according to a chain reaction mechanism. The experimental results are in good agreement with the equation for G(-Ph3P) = G(Ph3PO) obtained by steady-state treatment of the proposed mechanism.
