Abstract

Addition reactions of molecular oxygen to organic sulfur radicals generally appear to be slower than to cor-responding carbon centered radicals. No reaction at all has been found to occur between O2 and the radical cations RSSR+·, R2S+·, and (R2S)2+·. The rate constant for the reaction of oxygen with the thiyl radicals from penicillamine k(PenS· + O2) = 4.0 × 107 M-1 s-1 has been determined from direct pulse radiolysis experiments, and k = 3.4 × 108, 7.8 × 108, and 2.3 × 108 M-1 s-1 have been evaluated by a competition method for the addition of O2 to C2H5S·, t-Bu-S·, and HOCH2CH2S·, respectively. Higher rate constants up to 109 M-1 s-1 were measured for the addition of O2 to mesomeric carbon-sulfur radical centers, 〉Ċ-S- ↔ 〉C=Ṡ-. The results are discussed in terms of other O2 addition reactions to various organic and inorganic radicals.
