Abstract
The photochemical opening of an oxazole ring in a molecule of 2,5-diph enyloxazole was studied by quantum-chemical methods. The protic medium is involved in photolysis of this compound with cleavage of the O-C b ond in the oxazole ring. Photolysis proceeds predominantly via the pi sigma triplet state localized on this bond.
