Abstract

Since the observation of photo-Fries rearrangement in 1960, various aspects of the reaction have been studied. 1. and 2. Since then studies were initiated on the mechanistic aspects as well as the synthetic applications of photo-Fries reactions. 3., 4., 5. and 6. Crouse et al. have studied the photo-Fries reaction of esters of 1-naphthol and reported various substituted naphthoquinones derived from the photo-Fries product and their results provide a convenient method for the ...
