Photochemical reactions of 6H-purine-6-thione (PuT) via the excited triplet state [3(PuT)*] have been studied by means of laser flash photolysis in organic solvents. Transient absorption bands at 475 and 690 nm were assigned to 3(PuT)*. Intersystem quantum yield and the lowest triplet energy of 3(PuT)* were evaluated to be 0.99 and 63 kcal/mol, respectively. The self-quenching rate constant is quite large (2.3×109 M-1 s-1 in THF). In photoinduced electron transfer, 3(PuT)* acts as electron acceptor for tetramethylbenzidine, while 3(PuT)* acts as electron donor for p-dinitrobenzene. Rate constants for H-atom abstraction (khT) of 3(PuT)* from benzenethiols, tocopherol, and 1,4-cyclohexadiene are on the order of 108 M-1 s-1. From the Hammett plots of khT for substituted benzenethiols, a negative ρ value indicates that 3(PuT)* has electrophilic character. In the addition reaction of 3(PuT)* toward various alkenes, the electrophilic character of 3(PuT)* was also confirmed. By steady-light photolysis of PuT, purine was produced via 3(PuT)* after H-atom abstraction. On combination of these results, the character of the lowest 3(PuT)* was presumed.

Absolute rate constants for addition reactions of arylthiyl radicals (YC6H4S.) to arylacetylenes (XC6H4CCH) have been determined by a flash-photolysis method.The rate constants (in dm3 mol-1 s-1) vary from 1.
