Photochemistry of 2-Oxoacetates: from Mechanistic Insights to Profragrances and Bursting Capsules

Photoirradiation of 2-oxoacetates (α-ketoesters) with UV-A light proceeds via an intramolecular hydrogen abstraction of the triplet state in a Norrish type II pathway to form carbonyl compounds, carbon monoxide and/or dioxide, and a series of other side products. This review gives a detailed overvie...
