N2 - The antiaromatic corannulene dianion, Cor2-, undergoes photoejection of an electron to yield an intimate cage complex of Coṙ- and the electron. Part of the complex species undergoes cage recombination, krec1 = 1.1 × 106 s-1, while the other part of complex separates, ks = 2.3 × 106 s-1, and yields Coṙ- and a Li+/e- ion pair. Diffusional recombination of the later products proceeds with a bimolecular rate constant corresponding to krec2 = 1.3 × 109 M-1 s-1. Time-resolved laser flash-photolysis and FT-EPR experiments are used to characterize the transient species.
