Journal of Applied Spectroscopy Aims and scope

Abstract

Time-resolved moderated luminescence of aromatic ketones (benzophenone, aceptophenone) in the presence of neutral and reactive hydrogeneous foreign gases (ethylene, pentane, triethylamine) is investigated. It is shown that the addition of hydrogeneous foreign gases leads to strong quenching of the triplet molecules of aromatic ketones. Effectivenesses of such bimolecular processes as the collision detachment of a hydrogen atom and establishment of vibrational and thermal equilibrium are compared. It is concluded that the vibrational degrees of freedom of the acceptors, the aromatic ketones, are inactive in the photochemical process of collision detachment of a hydrogen atom that takes place after the establishment of vibrational equilibrium.
