Norrish type-2 reaction: Basic concept, Mechanism and Examples
Norrish type-2 reaction is a photochemical reaction in which an aldehyde or ketone having gamma hydrogen upon irradiation under produces 1,4-diradical which depending upon the structure may cyclise to produce cyclobutanol derivative or undergo beta-gamma cleavage to produce alkene and ketone. In this video Norrish type-2 reaction has been discussed in detail with an number of examples with explanation.
