The presence of single electron-transfer scavengers, (p-dinitrobenzene and t-Bu2NO) and the free radical inhibitor (hydroquinone) suppressed the reaction. A photoinduced electron-transfer mechanism is proposed. %K Photochemistry %K pentafluoroiodobenzene %K alkene %K single electron-transfer %K free radical inhibitor %U http://www.mdpi.com/1420-3049/2/1/11
