A method for the photoinduced evolution of atomic oxygen from pyridazine N-oxides was
developed. This underexplored oxygen allotrope mediates arene C–H oxidation within …

Asymmetric dibenzothiophene S, S-dioxides (DBTOOs) were synthesized and their
photophysical properties examined. Through examination, the molecules fluoresced at …

Sulfoximines are popular scaffolds in drug discovery due to their hydrogen bonding
properties and chemical stability. In recent years, the role of reactive intermediates such as …

Aromatic heterocyclic oxides, such as dibenzothiophene S-oxide (DBTO), have been
suggested to release ground state atomic oxygen [O (3P)] upon irradiation, and as such …

The reactivity profile of atomic oxygen [O (3P)] in the condensed phase has shown a
preference for the thiol group of cysteines. In this work, water-soluble O (3P)-precursors …

Sulfoxides, upon irradiation with ultraviolet (UV) light undergo α-cleavage, hydrogen
abstraction, photodeoxygenation, bimolecular photoreduction, and stereo-mutation. The UV …

A beneficial property of photogenerated reactive oxygen species (ROS) is the capability of
oxidant generation within a specific location or organelle inside a cell. Dibenzothiophene S …

Photodeoxygenation of Dibenzothiophene-S-oxide (DBTO) in UV-A light produces atomic
oxygen [O (3 P)] and the corresponding sulfide, dibenzothiophene (DBT). Recently, DBTO …

Photodeoxygenation of dibenzothiophene S-oxide and its derivatives have been used to
generate atomic oxygen [O (3 P)] to examine its effect on proteins, nucleic acids, and lipids …

There is a need for efficient methods for the synthesis of water-soluble dibenzothiophene
(DBT) and dibenzothiophene S-oxide (DBTO) derivatives to allow for the study of atomic …
