Abstract

The intrazeolite photooxygenations of four diarylethylenes have been examined. Several intermediates, including an epoxide, have been identified by comparison to independently synthesized samples. Aldehyde intermediates were shown to undergo intrazeolite Norrish type I cleavages in competition with a novel new photooxygenation/autoxidation reaction. [reaction: see text]
