We studied the photoinduced electron-transfer polymerization of acrylamide with, as a visible-light initiator, the heterocycle-N-oxide resazurin in the presence of triethanolamine. The irradiation of resazurin produces resorufin, which also absorbs in the visible region. Both phenoxazine dyes in the presence of the amine are efficient photoinitiators of acrylamide polymerization in an aqueous medium. The polymerization rates were measured at several amine concentrations. These values increase with the amine concentration, reaching a maximum value; further amine addition slightly decreases the polymerization rate. Time-resolved photolysis studies of the dyes were carried out under the polymerization conditions. The quenching of the dye excited states by the amine was analyzed with static-fluorescence and laser-Rash photolysis. These data were used for fitting curves of the polymerization rate versus the amine concentration, and it was concluded that the interaction of triplet excited dyes with the amine leads to acrylamide polymerization.
