Grossi and Strazzari have reported (J. Org. Chem. 2000, 65, 2748-2754) that the ceric ammonium nitrate modulated photooxidation of triphenylmethanol and 1,1-diphenylethanol yielded ESR spectra of the putative spiro-cyclohexadienyl intermediates in the O-neophyl rearrangements of the corresponding alkoxyl radicals, Ph2(R)CO*

The parameters of stretching vibrations nu(OH) (frequencies and integral intensities) have been calculated from IR spectra of a large number of H-complexes of 1,1-diphenylethanol [(C(6)H(5))(2)C(CH(3))OH] with solvents of various proton accepting strength which were not regularly reported. The data has
