The specificity of 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine to singlet oxygen was shown using Rose Bengal as a singlet oxygen generator, and Xanthine-Xanthine Oxidase and KO2 as the sources for the superoxide radical. The highest concentration of produced-singlet oxygen occurred at 25% of O2 by Rose Bengal photosensitization. The linewidth of the EPR signal for photosensitized nitroxyl radical, increasing solvent polarity. Deuterated solvents enlarge the EPR signal intensity in a dose-dependent manner. No EPR signal increase was observed in xanthine-xanthine oxidase reaction or KO2 systems, indicating that TEMP does not react with the superoxide anion. Thus, reaction of TEMP with 1O2 is highly specific. |
