Abstract

The kinetics of photoinduced reduction of isomeric nitroanilines and the effect of ethyl bromide as an intersystem crossing catalyst on the apparent rate constants of degradation of nitroanilines were studied. The presence of the catalyst caused deviation of the degradation kinetics of the nitroanilines from the first-order law in the substrate. The deviation was accounted for by the interaction of generated radical products with the parent nitro compound. The photoreduction of nitroanilines in benzene resulted in its hydroxylation yielding phenol. The presence of ethyl bromide increased the phenol yield.
