0 The reaction was carried out twice, and the 18 0 contents were analyzed by GC/mass spectra after silyation. b m/e for trimethyl-silyl ether. lamp through a Pyrex filter for 3 h at 20 C. The 180 contents in-, m-, and p-cresols formed by this reaction were measured by means of the GC/mass spectrum, revealing that an appreciable amount of lsO was incorporated into toluene (Table I). The control in which a toluene solution of a mixture of-, m-, and p-cresols (10 “2 M) was photolyzed under 1802 indicated that more than 90% of the oxygen of cresol was not affected by 1802. The correction by subtracting the control values and natural abundance gave the net contents of 180 in-, m-, and p-cresols as 14%, 19%, and 19%, respecitvely (TableI). The ortho: meta: para isomer ratio of cresol in this reaction was found to be 51: 25: 24, differing from the ratio observed under bubbling through oxygen (44: 40: 16) or under argon (71: 9: 20) in the reaction with 3.10 It is evident, therefore, that the incorporation of lsO in toluene accompanies the variationof the isomer ratio of cresol. A considerable amount of 180 was also incorporated in benzene to give [l80] phenol, when 3 was decomposed photochemically in benzene under 1802 (Table I). The yields of phenols, except for cresol (7-10%), more than doubled under oxygen compared with that underargon (from ca. 20% to 50% for phenol) in the reaction with 3.4Several mechanistic implications arise from these observations. The incorporation of the 180 into aromatics indicates that a re-action path (s) other than that proposed by Dorfman et al. 2 is involved in the oxidation of hydroxycyclohexadienyl radical (4) with molecularoxygen. We consider that the formation of [180] phenol (9a) can be accounted for bythe dihydrodiol mechanism (Scheme III), in which 4a formed from benzene and hydroxyl radical reacts with 1802 to give the peroxy radical 5a and/or 6a that collapses to the dihydrodiol 7a and/or 8a by the
