C. Salemidelvaux et al., PHOTOOXYGENATION OF ALPHA,ALPHA'-DIMETHYLSTILBENES SENSITIZED BY PHOTOCHROMIC COMPOUNDS, Tetrahedron letters, 37(29), 1996, pp. 5127-5130
A convincing evidence of the ability of the coloured open forms or pho
tomerocyanines of photochronic compounds to act as sensitiser of singl
et oxygen is provided by photosensitised oxidation of reference olefin
s, cis- and trans-alpha,alpha'-dimethylstilbenes, to a hydroperoxide.
