Abstract
Decomposition of hydrogen peroxide with a hypervalent iodine compound was examined. The results indicate that treatment of a hypervalent iodine compound with hydrogen peroxide produces singlet molecular oxygen (O-1(2)). Convergent evidence for the production of singlet molecular oxygen (O-1(2)) by decomposition of hydrogen peroxide with a hypervalent iodine compound comes from chemical trapping experiments and the specific chemiluminescence detection of O-1(2) at 1270 nm. Substantial evidence demonstrates that hydroperoxyl radical produced from hydrogen peroxide with hypervalent iodine reacts via a tetraoxidane intermediate, decomposing to give singlet molecular oxygen.
