    Abstract:

    Abstract The radical products formed in the photochemical decomposition of Azo Compounds (R 1 N 2 R 2 ) dissolved in various solvents were investigated. Nitrosodurene, 2-methyl-2-nitroso-propane and 5,5-dimethyl-1-pyrroline- N -oxide (DMPO) were used as spin traps. In the first group of Azo Compounds, in which R 1 was X-substituted phenyl and R 2 was SO 3 Na or SO 2 Ph, the spin adducts of R 1 and R 2 were observed. In the second group of Azo Compounds (R 1 = R 2 = R, where R was a tertiary-substituted carbon), the carbon-centred radicals R . were formed and trapped if irradiated in an argon atmosphere. When irradiated in air, the initially formed radicals R . were converted to oxygen-centred radicals (presumably peroxy or alkoxy) and trapped by DMPO; . OH radicals were also observed as further intermediates.
