Abstract
In this work, a systematical investigation on the role of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) on the transformation of tetrachloro-p-benzoquinone (TCBQ) under ultraviolet (UV) irradiation (at 253.7 nm) in aqueous solution has been conducted through quantum chemical calculations. Under the UV irradiation, with the forward energy barrier (Ea,f, 11.7 kcal mol-1) much lower than the reverse one (Ea,r, 22.3 kcal mol-1), the first triplet state of TCBQ was kinetically feasible to react with bisulfide anion (HS-) via the Michael addition, and the addition of HS- could promote the release of Cl- and the formation of primary dechlorination product (HS-TriCBQ). During the UV photolysis of the primary dechlorination products (HO-TriCBQ and HS-TriCBQ) in the presence of H2O and H2S, the addition of nucleophile (OH- or HS-) to the ortho-position of the hydroxyl or thiol group might be the most efficient pathway for the dechlorination, and their respective Ea,f were 9.2 kcal mol-1 (for HS--hydroxyl), 1.1 kcal mol-1 (for OH--thiol) and 8.9 kcal mol-1 (for HS--thiol). Moreover, the electron transfer from HS- to the first triplet states could generate hydrosulfide radical for the dechlorination of TCBQ. The findings in the present study may provide some important theoretical foundation for the dehalogenation of TCBQ as well as other halobenzoquinones.

Abstract
In this work, the UV-induced transformation of monochloro-p-benzoquinone (MCBQ) in aqueous solution has been systematically investigated through quantum chemical calculations. During the UV irradiation at 253.7 nm, the first triplet state of MCBQ (3MCBQ*) was from the intersystem crossing of its first excited singlet state (1MCBQ*). In aqueous solution, the nucleophilic attack of OH- on carbon atoms in 3MCBQ* was the central reaction. The addition of OH- to olefinic carbon atoms was much more kinetically feasible than that to carbonyl carbon atoms, even though the carbonyl carbon atoms were more positively charged. Moreover, OH- preferred to add to the ortho-position of C-Cl bond, where the unchlorinated atom was more negatively charged than the chlorinated one. The UV photolysis of the primary intermediate (HO-CBQ) was not the same as that of MCBQ. The attack of OH- on the para-position of C-Cl bond was the most efficient pathway. The addition of OH- to the chlorinated atom of 3HO-CBQ* was much more efficient than that in the case of 3MCBQ*, which reveals that more UV irradiation may promote the dechlorination. The findings in the present study may be helpful to enrich the understanding of the halobenzoquinones transformation in aqueous solution.

Abstract
The photochemical reactivity of the triplet state of pyrano- and furano-1,4-naphthoquinone derivatives (1 and 2) has been examined employing nanosecond laser flash photolysis. The quinone triplets were efficiently quenched by l-tryptophan methyl ester hydrochloride, l-tyrosine methyl ester hydrochloride, N-acetyl-l-tryptophan methyl ester and N-acetyl-l-tyrosine methyl ester, substituted phenols and indole (k q ∼109 L mol-1 s-1). For all these quenchers new transients were formed in the quenching process. These were assigned to the corresponding radical pairs that resulted from a coupled electron/proton transfer from the phenols, indole, amino acids, or their esters, to the excited state of the quinone. The proton coupled electron transfer (PCET) mechanism is supported by experimental rate constants, isotopic effects and theoretical calculations. The calculations revealed differences between the hydrogen abstraction reactions of phenol and indole substrates. For the latter, the calculations indicate that electron transfer and proton transfer occur as discrete steps.

Abstract
The laser flash photolysis technique (λ(exc)=355 nm) was used to investigate the mechanism of the HgCl(2) reduction mediated by CO(2)(-) radicals generated from quenching of the triplet states of 1,4-naphthoquinone (NQ) by formic acid. Kinetic simulations of the experimental signals support the proposed reaction mechanism. This system is of potential interest in the development of UV-A photoinduced photolytic procedures for the treatment of Hg(II) contaminated waters. The successful replacement of NQ with a commercial fulvic acid, as a model compound of dissolved organic matter, showed that the method is applicable to organic matter-containing waters without the addition of quinones.

Abstract
A novel epoxide 2 was formed as the major product in the reaction of 2-bromo-3-methyl-1,4-naphthoquinone with 1,3-propanedithiol in the presence of triethylamine in 92% yield. Molecular oxygen is suggested to be the source of the added oxygen in 2, an oxidation product of its precursor 3. A strong base such as triethylamine is required to abstract the methyl hydrogen of 1,4-naphthoquinones, leading to the formation of 3 as well as 2.
