2-Nitrodiphenylmethane (1a) on irradiation in isopropanol and acidified ethanol yields benzoic acids as the major product. 3-Phenyl-2,1-benzisoxazole (2a) and acridone (3a) are also formed, though in lower yields. 4,4'-Dichloro/bromo-5,5'-dimethyl-2-nitrodiphenylmethanes (1b, c) on similar irradiation yields 4-halo-3-methylbezoic acid (4) as the major product. 5-Methyl-4-halo-3-(4'-halo-3'-methylphenyl)-2,1-benzisoxazole (2b, c) and acridones (3b, c) are also formed.A plausible mechanism for the formation of various products in the photoreactions is discussed.
