Efficient ultraviolet-light energy dissipation by an aromatic ketone.
Experimental evidence on the efficiency of 2,2',4,4'-tetramethoxybenzil for UV-light energy dissipation is provided. This non-phenolic aromatic ketone has a low energy triplet which quickly decays to the ketone ground state, thus avoiding the generation of undesirable reactive species.
