The dimerizations, nucleophilic additions, and oxygenation reactions of 1, 1-diarylethylenes (1), induced by photoexcited cyanoanthracenes, have been investigated. 1, 1-Diphenylethylene (la) yields 2+ 2 and 2+ 4 cyclodimers and one dehydrodimer, whereas 1, 1-dianisylethylene (lb) gives twodehydrodimers, and 1, 1-bis (4-(dimethylamino) phenyl) ethylene (lc) forms no dimers. Formation of the dehydrodimers is accompanied by reduction of the cyanoanthracene sensitizer. For the dimerizationof lb, the quantum yields and product ratios can be altered by the addition of quiñones. The hydroquinone then replaces the reduced sensitizer. The reaction constant for nucleophilic addition of methanol to la*+ is 1.6 X 109 M" 1 s'1; for addition to lb*+ it is~ 107 M" 1 s'1. Methanol does not add efficiently to lc*+. Photooxygenation of the diarylethylenes yields mainly the corresponding 3, 3, 6, 6-tetraaryl-1, 2-dioxane in a chain process. In the presence of methanoland oxygen, la yields mainly 1-hydroperoxy-2-methoxy-1, 1-diphenylethane.Photoinduced electron-transfer photoreactions are attracting much attention in organic photochemistry. Considerable work has been done recently to define the scope of these reactions, their kinetics, and the mechanisms involved. Several reactions of olefins as electron donors sensitized by a number of electron acceptors have been identified. These include isomerizations (geometric and valence), rearrangements, dimerizations, mixed additions, acceptor-donor additions, nucleophilic additions, and oxygena-tions. 1
