Kinetics of geminate recombination of organic free radicals in viscous solvents.
The kinetics of geminate recombination of multiatomic organic free radicals in glycerol solutions have been investigated. Radicals were produced by ns laser flash photolysis under photoreduction of carbonyl compounds. An external moderate magnetic field decelerates geminate recombination leading to smaller cage effect values. The duration of geminate recombination is discussed.
