EnglishThe photogeneration and detection of new binol quinone methides undergoing mono- and bisalkylation of free nucleophiles was investigated by product distribution analysis and laser flash photolysis in water solution using binol quaternary ammonium derivatives as photoactivated precursors.

The alkylation processes of N and S nucleophiles are strongly competitive with the hydration reaction. DNA cross-linking potency of the water-soluble binol quaternary ammonium salts was investigated as a pH function and compared to that of other quaternary ammonium salts capable of benzo-quinone methide photogeneration, by gel electrophoresis.
