Abstract

Silicon can direct the Norrish type I cleavage of β-(trimethylsilyl) cycloalkanones at the C1- C2 bond in a highly regioselective manner. 1 This photochemical reaction has been applied in organic synthesis. 2-4 Carboradical intermediates generated therein are stabilized by a β- silyl group predominantly through “σ-π hyperconjugation”. 5-8
