The photochemical transformation of nitrite esters of fused 5-membered ring alcohols usually leads to the formation of cyclic hydroxamic acids (2). We wish to-report that irradiation of the nitrite Ib of a fused cyclopentanol induces extensive reorganization of the molecule and leads to the formatio
