Thermal decomposition of 1,4-dimethylnaphthalene endoperoxide (DMNE) as a source of singlet oxygen was used to measure chemical rate constants, k(R), for reactions between singlet oxygen, O-2((1)Delta(g)), and various ...

The reduction of molecular oxygen in triplet and singlet spin states at metal electrodes is analyzed in the framework of quantum mechanical theory of charge transfer. Both outer- and inner-sphere mechanism is considered. ...

Photosensitized oxidations involve the generation of radicals (type I mechanism) and/or the production of singlet molecular oxygen (1O2) (type II mechanism). Phenalenone (PN) is one of the well-known type II photosensitizers ...

According to literature the acetazolamide, which is commonly used as a diuretic, shows phototoxic properties. To contribute to the understanding of the role of this chemical as a generator of the very common toxic substance, ...

Detection of O2(1Δg) emission, λmax=1270 nm, following laser excitation and steady-state methods were employed to measure total reaction rate constants, k T, for the reaction between singlet oxygen and the antimalarial ...

The aim of this work was to investigate the aggregation effect of Azure B and monobrominated Azure B on their singlet oxygen generation. The monomeric and dimeric forms of these dyes were evaluated to select the species ...

The reaction of singlet molecular oxygen with a series of cyclic and acyclic alpha-diimines was studied. Time-resolved methods were used to measure total reaction rate constants and steady-state methods were used to determine ...
