Photochemical reactions tend to give more than one photoproduct. However, such a reaction can be a powerful synthetic tool when it is possible to conduct it in regioselective conditions yielding a single photoproduct. Water-surfactant solutions as reaction media can be considered as an approach in this context because they show products with different features than those from isotropic solutions. Here we describe results obtained from studying the effect on the prototypical photoreaction, known as the photo-Fries reaction of several substituted acetanilides and α-naphthyl acetamide within surfactant micelles (ionic and non-ionic micelles). This reaction involves homolytic cleavage of a C-N bond to yield a singlet radical pair. The surfactant micelles control the rotational and translational mobility of the radical pair, resulting in noticeable photoproduct selectivity.
Substituent effects on the lifetimes and reactivities of arylnitrenium ions studied by laser flash photolysis and photothermal beam deflection

Photolysis of 5-substituted-N-tert-butyl-3-methylanthranilium ion produces transient N-tert-butyl-(2-acetyl-4-substituted) phenylnitrenium ions. This is confirmed by identification of the stable products, transient absorption experiments, and photothermal
