Irradiation of benzil monobenzhydrylimine (1) in benzene with UV light yields 1-benzhydryl-2,2,4,5-tetraphenyl-3-imidazoline (2), benzil (3), 1,1,3,4-tetraphenyl-N-oxo-2-azabutadiene (4), benzophenone (5), and benzonitrile (6).Irradiation of 2,2,4,5-tetraphenyl-3-oxazoline (E) affords products 4-6, and irradiation of 4 gives 5 and 6.The probable mechanistic route is discussed.
