In the electron transfer between the cation radicals of the amine moiety of four intramolecular anthra cene-amine systems and the anion radicals BXXX of some heterocyclic and carbonyl compounds in acetonitrile/toluene, the triplet state of the anthracene moiety is formed. As intermediates in this process, intramolecular and intermolecular triplet exciplexcs or and or are discussed.
