| Abstract: | Photolysis of the title compounds in acidic aqueous solution results in "activation" of the distal m-methyl group, resulting in deuterium exchange (Phi approximately 0.1) when D(2)O is used. The reaction is not observed in neutral aqueous solution or in deuterated organic solvents such as CD(3)CN. The reaction is best rationalized by a mechanism involving initial protonation at the carbonyl oxygen of the triplet excited state. reaction: see text] |
