Abstract

The dye-sensitized photooxidation of silyl diazo compounds produced the corresponding silyl ketones and silyl esters, and the latter may be formed by the rearrangement of silyl- substituted carbonyl oxides. The reactions of a carbonyl oxide with various silyl ketones were also studied. The dye-sensitized photooxidation of diphenyldiazomethane in the presence of silyl ketones gave silyl esters together with benzophenone by reactions of a ...
