Summary.
Evidence for novel chemical sources of singlet oxygen based on the conversion of ozone by tin(II) in acetic acid or nitrite ions in water was found by screening a selection of inorganic salts by means of a sensitive detector for exothermic processes (SEDEX) and a N2-cooled Ge-diode for singlet oxygen luminescence measurements.
