Mechanism of Reaction and Photoacid Generation of <i>N</i>-Oxysuccinimidoarylsulfonate PAGs: A Laser Flash Photolytic Study
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The photochemical behavior of four N -oxysuccinimidoarylsulfonate photoacid generators (PAGs), 1-[[phenylsulfonyl]oxy]- (PSPD), 1-[[(4-methylphenyl)sulfonyl]oxy]- (MSPD), 1-[[(4-fluorophenyl)sulfonyl]oxy]- (FSPD), 1-[[(4-chlorophenyl)sulfonyl]oxy]-2,5-pyrrolidinedione (CSPD), has been studied by means of nanosecond laser flash photolysis (λ exc = 266 nm) and steady-state photolysis (λ exc = 254 nm) with the aim of understanding the reaction mechanism and, particularly, photoacid generation pathways and efficiency in the deep UV region. Upon photoexcitation, the formation of arylsulfonyl radicals and their subsequent desulfonylation were detected for the four PAGs. In oxygen-saturated solution, the generation of the corresponding arylperoxy radicals was also observed. Photoacid generation quantum yields upon laser excitation were found to range from 0.04 to 0.05. Product studies following steady-state irradiations reveal that acid generation is dominated by the formation of sulfonic acids.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
