Photoirradiation of the light of wavelength >300 nm onto suspensions of titanium (IV) oxide (TiO[sub 2], anatase, TiO[sub 2](A), and rutile TiO[sub 2](R)) in aqueous solution of silver salts and aliphatic alcohols led to the evolution of molecular oxygen (O[sub 2]), the deposition of silver metal (Ag) onto the surface of TiO[sub 2] and the oxidation of alcohols. The product distribution was studied by using some aliphatic alcohols (methanol, ethanol, 2-propanol, and tert-butyl alcohol) and inorganic and organic silver salts. Kinetic analyses were performed with an aqueous suspension containing 2-propanol and silver sulfate. Dependence of the initial formation rates of products (O[sub 2], acetone, and Ag) on the concentration of 2-propanol in suspension (C[sub p]) was analyzed on the assumption of a mechanism including reductive and oxidative trappings of pairs of photoexcited electron (e[sup [minus]])- positive hole (h[sup +]) by surface-adsorbed substrates. The mechanism implies facile recombination of the pair in the absence of the appropriate surface-adsorbed substrates. The mechanism implies facile recombination of the pair in the absence of the appropriate surface-adsorbed substrates, which react with the pair to produce free active species, e[sup [minus]] and h[sup +], with sufficient ability for subsequent redox reactions. It is presumed thatmore » coverage of surface sites with 2-propanol via Langmuirian adsorption determines the distribution of free h[sup +] generated by the reductive trapping by silver ion (Ag[sup +]). The C[sub p] dependence of the rate in TiO[sub 2](A) suspension was consistent with the proposed mechanism and some kinetic and adsorption parameters were obtained. 19 refs., 7 figs., 2 tabs.« less
