Abstract

Photochemistry of different α-substituted and phenyl-substituted propiophenones in methanol is investigated with a view to delineate the substituent effect with a special reference tu their rearrangement to α-arylpropanoic acids, an important class of nonsteroidal antiinflammatory agents. The results thus obtained bringsforth an important element of their reactivityprofile ie the α-chloro-substituent in combination with nuclear alkyl substituents ( ...
