CASSCF and multireference MP2 calculations were carried out on thiophene-S-oxide (TO)
and selenophene-Se-oxide (SeO), comparing the energies of the ground state to the first two …

Photolysis of dibenzothiophene-S-oxide (DBTO) and dibenzoselenophene-Se-oxide
(DBSeO) was examined under direct and sensitized conditions. Quantum yield and solvent …

Photolysis of substituted thiophene‐S‐oxides in solution results in the formation of either the
corresponding thiophene or furan, in addition to uncharacterized materials. No good …

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 …

Photoinduced deoxygenation of dibenzothiophene S-oxide (DBTO) has been suggested to
release atomic oxygen [O (3 P)]. To expand the conditions and applications where O (3 P) …

Dibenzothiophene-5-oxide (DBTO) cleanly produces dibenzothiophene (DBT) on direct
photolysis, but with very low quantum yield. A proposed mechanism involves scission of the …

Atomic oxygen O (3P) is a potent oxidant that has been well-studied in the gas phase.
However, exploration of its reactivity in the condensed organic phase has been hampered …

Photodeoxygenation of dibenzothiophene S‐oxide (DBTO) is believed to produce ground‐
state atomic oxygen [O (3P)] in solution. Compared with other reactive oxygen species …

Photolysis of dibenzothiophene sulfoxide results in the formation of dibenzothiophene and
oxidized solvent. Though quantum yields are low, chemical yields of the sulfide are quite …

Photolyses of dibenzothiophene sulfoxides (DBTOs) with intramolecular trapping
functionalities attached in the 4-position show higher quantum yields of deoxygenation …
