Advances in singlet oxygen chemistry

2005

The authors discuss the advances made in both mechanistic and synthetic aspects of singlet oxygen chem.  Formation and reactions of singlet oxygen in heterogeneous media (such as zeolites, micelles, vesicles, etc.) are discussed.  Cycloaddns. of mol. oxygen to olefins, heteroatom oxidns. via reaction of singlet oxygen with the electron pair at heteroatoms, and photooxygenations of heterocyclic systems by singlet oxygen are also reviewed.
