A state-of-the-art review of original research, this book includes discussions of intramolecular photoadditoin of nucleophiles, electrophiles, and radical species to the activated aromatic ring; new methods for regio-, anantio-, and diastereoselective photooxygenations involving singlet oxygen mechanisms; and applications of microreactors for photochemical synthesis of large-ring compounds, photochemical rearrangement, photocycloaddition, and chiral photochemical synthesis. It covers the role of layered inorganic solids in the construction, characterization, and analysis of supramolecular assemblies of metal ions, molecules, metal complexes, and proteins, and more.
Ortho photocycoladdition of alkenes and alkynes to the Benzene ring; photocycloaddition and photoaddition reactions of aromatic compounds; singlet oxygen ene sensitised photooxygenations - stereochemistry and mechanisms; singlet oxygen reactions - solvent and compartmentalization effects; microreactor-controlled product selectivity in organic photochemical reactions; enantioselective photoreactions in the solid state; observations on the photochemical behaviour of coumarins and related systems in the crystalline state; supramolecular photochemistry of cyclodextrin materials; photoactive layered materials - assembly of ions, molecules, metal complexes, and proteins; fluorescence of excited singlet state acids in certain organized media - applications as molecular probes.
