The rate constant of the reaction of ground state S(3P) atoms with molecular oxygen, S(3P) + O2(X3Σg−) → SO(X3Σ−) + O(3P), has been determined as (1.7 ± 0.2) × 1012 cm3 mol−s− at 298 °K by means of kinetic spectroscopy in the vacuum ultraviolet region. The source of S(3P) atoms was the isothermal flash photolysis of COS in the presence of Ar or CO2.

This article reviews the excited-state quenching, pro-vitamin A activity and anticarcinogenicity of carotenes and xanthophylls in relation to their chemical structures. Excited-state quenching improved with the length of the conjugated chain structure. Pro-vitamin A activity was dependent on the presence of at least one beta-ionyl ring structure. The effectiveness of carotenoids as antioxidants depended on their ability to trap peroxyl radicals with production of resonance-stabilized carotenyl radicals. The products identified from oxidations of carotenes and xanthophylls with molecular oxygen and other oxidizing agents are presented. The free radical-mediated mechanisms that have been proposed to account for the different classes of products are reviewed.
