Determination of Chemical Quantum Yields for Photo-Fries Rearrangements. Solns. of the appropri-
ate substrate 2 (0.55 mmol) were prepared in different organic solvents (10 ml). An aliquot (2 ml) of each
soln. was placed in a spectrophotometric quartz cell, through which Ar gas was bubbled during 20 min.
Similarly, a 6 mM soln. of ‘potassium ferrioxalate’ (K3Fe(C2O4)3ACHTREUNG·3 H2O) was prepared, an aliquot (2 ml)
was placed in a spectrophotometric quartz cell, and Ar gas was bubbled through the soln. for 20 min. The
cells were then placed in an optical bench, and irradiated simultaneously with a medium-pressure Hg
lamp (Hereaus TQ150), whose radiation was collimated with a Schott quartz lens, and filtered with an
interference Schott filter (5-nm path band) to give a nearly parallel beam at 313 nm. The chemical quan-
tum yields f were then determined with ‘potassium ferrioxalate’ as an actinometer according to the pro-
cedure described in [23]. The conversions of 2a–2c were monitored by HPLC, and were lower than 10%.
