Herein we probe the effects of crystalline structure and geometry on benzophenone photophysics, self-quenching, and the regenerable formation of persistent triplet radical pairs at room temperature. Radical pairs are not observed in solution but appear via an emergent pathway within the solid-state assembly. Single crystal X-ray diffraction (SC-XRD) of two sets of constitutional isomers, benzophenone bis-urea macrocycles, and methylene urea-tethered dibenzophenones are compared. Upon irradiation with 365 nm light-emitting diodes (LEDs), each forms photogenerated radicals as monitored by electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR). Once generated, the radicals exhibit half-lives from 2 to 60 days before returning to starting material without degradation. Re-exposure to light regenerates the radicals with similar efficiency. Subtle differences in the structure of the crystalline frameworks modulates the maximum concentration of photogenerated radicals, phosphorescence quantum efficiency (phi), and n-type self-quenching as observed using laser flash photolysis (LFP). These studies along with the electronic structure analysis based on the time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) suggest the microenvironment surrounding benzophenone largely dictates the favorability of self-quenching or radical formation and affords insights into structure/function correlations. Advances in understanding how structure determines the excited state pathway solidstate materials undertake will aid in the design of new radical initiators, components of OLEDs, and NMR polarizing agents.
