Energies and lifetimes of triplet states of a series of 2-cyclohexenones have been measured in solution under ambient conditions by time-resolved photoacoustic calorimetry (PAC). The PAC triplet lifetimes are in excellent agreement with lifetimes measured by kinetic absorption spectrophotometry (KAS) using nanosecond flash techniques, indicating that the present data indeed pertain to the enone triplets previously studied using KAS. The data demonstrate that, as previously proposed, the pi pi triplet energies in these systems are indeed correlated with triplet lifetimes, and vary sensibly with the anticipated extent of conformational flexibility of the C = C bond. No evidence supporting formation of metastable trans-cyclohexenones was obtained. The data also demonstrate greater precision and, for lifetimes, greater accuracy than has hitherto been claimed for the PAC technique for study of transients with lifetimes in the 25 ns range.
