title: Solvent effects in hydrogen abstraction from cholesterol by benzophenone triplet excited state.
abstract: Hydrogen abstraction from the C-7 position of cholesterol (Ch) by triplet excited benzophenone (BZP) exhibits remarkable solvent-dependence in product studies. Kinetic measurements on the intramolecular version of the process in dyads containing covalently linked Ch and BZP units reveal important solvent effects and significant stereodifferentiation.
