Abstract:Regularities in the generation of singlet oxygen sensitized by the indotricarbocyanine dye HITC with Iand ClO 4 anions in highly and slightly polar solvents were studied as functions of dye concentration (C d ). The yield of singletoxygen formation (γ Δ ) by HITC (I -) increased in slightly polar solvents as its concentration increased. It was shown that HITC with C d < 10 -7 M in CHCl 3 and <5•10 -6 M in o-dichlorobenzene with any anion was found primarily in the form of free ions. It was established that the… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
