Flavin-based catalysts are photoactive in the visible range which makes them useful in biol. and chem. Herein, we present electrospray-ionization mass-spectrometry detection of short-lived intermediates in photooxidation of toluene catalyzed by flavinium ions (Fl+). Previous studies have shown that photoexcited flavins react with aromatics by proton-coupled electron transfer (PCET) on the microsecond time scale. For Fl+, PCET leads to FlH.+ with the H-atom bound to the N5 position. We show that the reaction continues by coupling between FlH.+ and hydroperoxy or benzylperoxy radicals at the C4a position of FlH.+. These results demonstrate that the N5-blocking effect reported for alkylated flavins is also active after PCET in these photocatalytic reactions. Structures of all intermediates were fully characterized by isotopic labeling and by photodissociation spectroscopy. These tools provide a new way to study reaction intermediates in the sub-second time range.
