## Abstract The reactions of singlet oxygen with all possible isomers of monoβ and dimethylnaphthalenes as well as with 1,4,6,7βtetramethylnaphthalene have been studied. Apart from 2βmethylnaphthalene, which does not react under our reaction conditions, attack on 1,4β and in some cases also on 5,8β
The correlation of the reactive component of the bimolecular quenching rate constant, k r , with DG for reactions of singlet molecular oxygen with phenols is interpreted in terms of classical and semiclassical theories of electron transfer. Both treatments indicate a diabatic process with a reorgani
