29. 2 is yielded and can be used for amine functionalization. For carboxylic functionalization, the relevant data are that all carboxylic groups do not absorb this spectral line but C-Br bonds will be broken by photolysis at 254 nm. All these photolysis characteristics can be found in: H. Okabe, Photochemistry of Small Molecules (Wiley, New York, 1978).
