An interparticle system has been devised, allowing airborne singlet oxygen to transfer between particle surfaces. Singlet oxygen is photogenerated on a sensitizer particle, where it then travels through air to a second particle bearing an oxidizable compound-a particulate-based approach with some similarities to reactive oxygen quenching in the atmosphere. In atmospheric photochemistry, singlet oxygen is generated by natural particulate matter, but its formation and quenching between particles has until now not been determined. Determining how singlet oxygen reacts on a second surface is useful and was developed by a three-phase system (particleair-particle) interparticulate photoreaction with tunable quenching properties. We identify singlet oxygen quenching directly by near-IR phosphorescence in the airborne state and at the air/particle interface for total quenching rate constants (k(T)) of adsorbed anthracene trapping agents. The air/solid interface k(T) of singlet oxygen by anthracene-coated particles was (2.8 +/- 0.8) x 10(7) g mol(-1) s(-1) for 9,10-dimethylanthracene and (2.1 +/- 0.9) x 10(7) g mol(-1) s(-1) for 9,10-anthracene dipropionate dianion, and the lifetime of airborne singlet oxygen was measured to be 550 mu s. These real-time interactions and particle-induced quenching steps open up new opportunities for singlet oxygen research of atmospheric and particulate processes.
