Abstract

Abstract The photooxidations of 1, s-dithiacyclooctane (l, S-DTCO), 1, Cdithiane, and pentamethylene sulfide have been compared. The photooxidation of 1, 5-DTCO differs significantly from the other substrates in several respects:(1) the ratio of chemical quenching to total quenching of singlet oxygen during photooxidation of 1, s-DTCO is 70%, in comparison to 5% for 1, 4-dithiane and 2.9% for pentamethylene sulfide;(2) a sulfone is ...
