Abstract
Photochemistry of Fe(III) hydroxocomplexes has a great interest because of possibility of hydroxyl radical formation at the primary photochemical step. This mechanism is based mainly on the analysis
of the final products of photochemical reactions between light-excited Fe(III) complexes and organic compounds. However, realization of an alternative mechanism of photolysis, based on the intermolecular electron
transfer from organic molecules located in the second coordination sphere to the light-excited complex could take place. To distinguish these mechanisms, the experiments on the nanosecond laser flash photolysis of
