δ-versusγ-Hydrogen abstraction in the photocyclization of β-alkoxy-ketones

Abstract

Photocyclization of β-alkoxy-ketones can give tetrahydrofuranols and cyclobutanols viaδ- or γ-hydrogen abstraction, respectively: the occurrence of δ-hydrogen abstraction via a seven-membered transition state is attributable to the enhanced stability of the resulting α-oxalkyl radical.
