Charge transfer to matrix molecules was found to be the principal photochemical reaction of the radical cations Me 4 and Me 6 . It was shown that the difference in the localization of positive charge in the ground state of these radical cations (at the Sn-C bond in Me 4 and at the Sn-Sn bond in Me 6 ) did not affect the pathways of their photochemical reactions. Sn +. Sn 2 +. Sn +. Sn 2 +.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
