Abstract
The quantum yields of formation of the methylviologen cation-radical were measured, the effect of pH was studied, and the possibility of photogeneration of hydrogen was examined for systems with disodium 1,5- and 1,8-anthracenedisulphonate in aqueous media or 9-acetylanthracene in micellar media of sodium dodecyl sulphate, in the presence of methylviologen, triethanolamine, and colloidal platinum.
