DISCUSSION In our study, a variety of perhaloalkanes was found to react with both allyl and propargyl alcohols in photochemical reactions. Peroxide catalysis was also effective, however, the yields were poor. Quartz or Trycor vessels were not necessary in most of these reactions since it was found that cnough ultraviolet penetrated “Double Tough” Pyrex pipe along with the visible light to cleave homolytically thc CI bond of RJ. The reactants were ...
