โฆ Synopsis
We have recently initiated a general research program to study the photochemistry of epoxyolefins. The present paper describes our initial results on the photochemical rearrangement of the monoepoxides of conjugated dienes. Irradiation2 of acetone solutions of 3,4-epolcyolefins (.OBM) at 30001 results in the formation of S , y-unsaturated ketones. Several examples are shown in the Table. An interesting
