Abstract
Methylisothiazoles undergo phototransposition in neutral solution to m ethylthiazoles by a single permutation process. Methylisothiazole --> methylisothiazole transpositions, previously reported to occur, were n ot detected in these reactions. In trifluoroacetic acid solvent, proto nated methylisothiazoles and methylthiazoles phototranspose by P4 and P5 permutation pathways, respectively, resulting in a unique phototran sposition cycle.
