Formation of ketones from alkyl nitrites in the solid state

Alkyl nitrites selectively afforded the corresponding ketones upon photoirradiation in the solid state. It was suggested by the X-ray crystallographic analysis that the cavity in crystal and the initial conformation of the nitroso group had an influence on the yield of the ketones.
