Metal-Catalyzed Organic Photoreactions. Titanium(IV) Chloride Catalyzed Photoreaction of Saturated Ketones with Methanol and Its Application to the Synthesis of Frontalin

Photoreaction of acyclic and cyclic saturated ketones in methanol in the presence of TiCl4 afforded 1,2-diols as the main products.The effect of the substituents on the stereochemical course of the photoreaction was examined with substituted cyclohexanones.Further, the present reaction was applied for the synthesis of a pheromone, frontalin.
