title: Misleading effects of impurities derived from the extremely long-lived electron-transfer state of 9-mesityl-10-methylacridinium ion.
abstract: 9-Mesityl-10-methylacridinium ion has an extremely long-lived electron-transfer state, which results in the misleading effects of electron donor impurities contained in benzonitrile to produce the stable acridinyl radical.
