The magnetic field effects on photochemical reactions in ionic liquids.
The magnetic field effects (MFEs) on photoinduced hydrogen abstraction reactions of benzophenone (BP) with thiophenol (PhSH) in the ionic liquids (ILs) N,N,N-trimethyl-N-propylammonium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl) imide (TMPA TFSI), N-methyl-N-propylpyrrolidinium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl) imide (P13 TFSI), and N-methyl-N-propylpiperidinium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl) imide (PP13 TFSI) were investigated at 296 K by using a nanosecond laser flash photolysis technique under magnetic fields of 0-1.7 T. Large MFEs were observed for the first time in the ILs. In TMPA TFSI, the yield of the benzophenone ketyl radical gradually decreased with increasing magnetic field strength from 0 to 1.7 T, producing a 20% decrease at 1.7 T.
