Abstract: In this research work, hitherto unreported photochemical studies on allyl ethers of 1-hydroxy-2-naphthophenone, 2-hydroxy-1-naphthophenone and 3-hydroxy-2-naphthophenone are presented. While allyl ethers of 1-hydroxy-2-naphthophenone were photoactive at 330 nm and the other two ethers were photostable.
Keywords: Photolysis, Claisen Rearrangement, Hydroxynaphthophenones.

Scope of the Article: Classification
