Abstract

The irradiation of several aromatic systems (carbocyclic and heterocyclic) in the presence of aliphatic tertiary amines or sodium borohydride leads to the production of dihydro-derivatives. Three different mechanisms for photoreduction have been identified through the use of deuterated species. A system of nomenclature is proposed for categorizing various organic reduction mechanisms. © 1973, Walter de Gruyter. All rights reserved.
