compound introduction
Description 1,2-benzodiphenylene sulfide is a rare constituent of coal tar. Photodeoxygenation of 1,2-benzodiphenylene sulfoxide, generates an intermediate capable of oxidizing the solvent benzene to phenol. Liquid-phase photolysis of 1,2-benzodiphenylene sulfide to generate atomic oxygen [O(3P)] or an equivalent active oxygen species has been reported.1,2-Benzodiphenylene sulfide has been used in direct screening of sediment samples for polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons by flow manifold coupled on-line to a fluorimetric detector.
