SECTION-B
UNIT-I
--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---
- a) Describe Photo-Fries rearrangement and formation of peroxy compounds.
b) Discuss photochemical isomerization in details with mechanism.
- a) Trans-3,4-dimethylcyclobutene can open by two conrotatory paths to give either [2E, 4E] or [2Z, 4Z]-hexadiene. Explain why both products are symmetry allowed, and then account for the fact that only [2E, 4E] isomer is obtained in practice?
