Popis: —Reaction rate constants for the reaction of singlet oxygen with a series of 24 sulfides in chloroform have been measured by inhibition of the self-sensitized photooxidation of rubrene. The reaction rate constant is sensitive to steric effects, decreasing as the carbons α- to sulfur become more highly substituted. Addition of a methyl group to each of the carbons α- to sulfur decreases the rate constant by about a factor of 10. From a series of p- and m-substituted thioanisoles, a ρ of -1.67 ± 0.09 was found. A much better correlation was found with σ than with σ+ indicating there is no resonance interaction with the reaction center. Typical rate constants are: di-n-butyl sulfide, 2.3 × 107M-1 s-1; CBZ-L-methionine methyl ester, 1.4 × 107; di-s-butyl sulfide, 1.8 × 106; di-t-butyl sulfide, 1.3 × 105; and thioanisole, 2.3 × 106.
