22. Radicals such as a phenoxy radical formed by hydrogen abstraction or a phenacyl radical formed by Norrish type I cleavage of 1 can be excluded because of the short lifetime of intermediate M. Compounds 1 with poor leaving groups did, however, give some long-lived transient absorption at 330 nm that may be attributed to the formation of phenacyl radicals.
