Abstract

Abstract: The photooxidation of benzoylformic acid (la) in benzene gave peroxybenzoic acid, hydrogen peroxide, and phenyl benzoate. The addition of a-methylstyrene to the oxidation system afforded the epoxide together with acetophenone as a CC cleaved product, and the ester yield was significantly increased at the expense of the peracid. The photooxidation of la was not sensitized by methylene blue or other sensitizers, but was efficiently ...
