Hi, I'm doing a post-lab report and I have no idea how to solve this question. It asks which of the following molecules would be useful in quenching benzophenone photoreduction.
it then lists oxygen (s1 = 22kcal/mol), 9,10-diphenylanthracene (t1=42 kcal/mol), trans-1,3-pentanediene (59 kcal/mol), napthalene (61 kcal/mole), biphenyl (t1 = 66 kcal/mole), toluene (t1= 83 kcal/mol), and benzene(t1 = 84 kcal/mole).
First of all, what does quenching the reaction even mean? And what characteristics would make some of these a good "quencher" for benzophenone photoreduction?
