| Abstract
| - New heterogeneous catalysts that use oxygen and light to generate singlet oxygen (1O2) have beenprepared. The catalysts facilitate various types of singlet oxygenation reactions including the Enereaction, the Diels−Alder reaction, and others. The catalysts are made by stirring a heterogeneousmixture of fullerene-C60 (dissolved in toluene) with aminomethylated poly(styrene-co-divinylbenzene)beads. Also, catalysts for aqueous photooxidations are made by reacting the initial catalysts withpoly(allylamine) to create an outer layer that is more hydrophilic.
