The photochemistry of amides and amide derivatives 3: The photolysis of methyl-2-phenoxybenzohydroxamate
TLDR
In this article, the photochemistry of methyl 2-phenoxybenzohydroxamate was studied and it was found that the relative amounts of the type II product and the phenyl migration product were solvent dependent.Abstract:
The photochemistry of methyl-2-phenoxybenzohydroxamate was studied. This compound was found to undergo the type I reaction followed by intramolecular cyclization to generate xanthone, the type II reaction to generate 2-phenoxybenzamide, and a formal 1,5 shift of the phenyl group from the benzohydroxamate ring to the nitrogen. It was also found that the relative amounts of the type II product and the phenyl migration product were solvent dependent. Photolysis in methanol favored the phenyl migration process whereas photolysis in cyclohexane favored the type II process. These results are attributed to an increased amount of single electron transfer from the phenoxy group to the carbonyl group relative to the type II process in methanol. The photolysis of N,N-dimethyl-2-phenoxybenzamide, which cannot undergo phenyl migration, gives xanthone as the only product.read more

The role of direct photolysis in the photodegradation of the herbicide bentazone in natural surface waters
TL;DR: Experimental and modeling results showed that bentazone is mainly photodegraded by direct photolysis in natural water samples, even in the presence of dissolved organic matter (DOM) that can act as light-screening agent, photosensitizer and scavenger of reactive species.

Degradation mechanisms of Microcystin-LR during UV-B photolysis and UV/H 2 O 2 processes: Byproducts and pathways
TL;DR: Bond cleavage and intramolecular electron rearrangement by electron pair in the nitrogen atom were the major reactions during UV-B photolysis andUV-B/H2O2 processes, and hydroxylation by OH radical and the adduct formation reaction between the produced by-products were identified as additional pathways during the UV- B/H 2O2 process.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used triplet photosensitizers, triplet quenchers, computational methods, and the position of the nitro substituent to determine if benzohydroxamic acid could be released by the o -nitrobenzyl photolabile protecting group (PPG) in a wavelength-dependent manner.
