The regioselectivity of internal hydrogen abstraction by triplet o-tert-amylbenzophenone
The title ketone undergoes triplet-state δ-hydrogen abstraction to produce two diastereomeric sets of 1-phenyl-1-indanols: the 2,3,3-trimethyl isomers 2Z and 2E by abstraction of a methylene hydrogen and the 3-methyl 3-ethyl isomers 1Z and 1E by abstracti
