K. Pitchumani et V. Ramamurthy, FORMATION OF REARRANGEMENT PRODUCT IN PHOTOLYSIS OF ALPHA,ALPHA-DIMETHYLDEOXYBENZOIN UPON CYCLODEXTRIN COMPLEXATION, Photochemistry and photobiology, 59(4), 1994, pp. 399-401
Solid-state irradiation of cyclodextrin complexes of alpha,alpha-dimet
hyldeoxybenzoin results in the formation of a significant amount of re
arrangement product, 4-isopropylbenzophenone, in addition to cage prod
ucts. This behavior is not observed in the photolysis in solution or i
n micellar media.
