Abstract

Adamantyl-functionalized phthalimides were synthesized and the probability of intramolecular photochemical hydrogen atom abstraction in the solid state analyzed by X- ray crystallographic analyses. These analyses and solid-state photolyses showed that the parameters determining photochemical reactivity for typical carbonyl compounds in the solid state can also be extended to phthalimides. Only N-(2-adamantyl) phthalimide underwent ...
