Oxidation of Polysulfide Ions Induced by CdS Nanoparticles under Pulsed Photolysis Conditions

Theoretical and Experimental Chemistry Aims and scope

Abstract

We have studied the photochemical behavior of colloidal solutions of cadmium sulfide containing polysulfide ions under pulsed irradiation conditions. We have established that the pulsed photolysis product responsible for absorption in the 520-650 nm region is the radical anion S 3 . We have studied the kinetic characteristics of disappearance of this intermediate under various conditions, and we propose a scheme for the mechanism of these processes.
