Abstract
The review is dedicated to the photochemical reactions of radical cations (RC) of various organic oxygen-containing compounds stabilized in low-temperature matrices. The nature of RC and the products of their photochemical reactions has been established via quantum chemistry, electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and low-temperature optical spectroscopy. Depending on the structure of the precursor molecule, various mechanisms of photoconversion arise for these RC: charge transfer to matrix molecules, hydrogen atom and proton transfer, isomerization, dissociation. This study allowed us to posit that there is no correlation between the structure of the molecule of the precursor molecule and the variety of available phototransformation channels for the corresponding RC in frozen matrices.
