Regioselective Functionalization of Nonactivated CH-Bonds, 4. -Photoreactions of Amphiphilic Derivatives of Benzophenonecarboxylic Acid and Myristic Acid Derivatives in Micelles and Bilayers

Amphiphilic derivatives of benzophenonecarboxylic acid and myristic acid in micelles, vesicles, and multilamellar aggregates were photochemically converted into tertiary alcohols, the workup of which yielded mixtures of the isomeric ketomyristic acid methyl esters 5.A slightly increased but none the less low selectivity was found in bilayers in comparison with micelles.Various amphiphilic head groups shifted the center of attack.Low total yields, especially in bilayers, can be attributed to a predominant reaction between the benzophenone substituents.By preparation of the corresponding reference compounds it could be demonstrated that benzhydrols (8a-d) or benzpinacols (9a-c) are not formed in this unexpected reaction.
