Thesteady irradiation at 2537 A of aqueous solutions of phenol in the presence of oxygen, dinitrogen oxide, and cupric acetate or under nitrogen yields rather similar products. Five carbon-carbon or carbon-oxygen dimers and two dihydroxybenzenes, but no trihydroxybenzenes, were identified. The hydroxylation products arise in part from the carbon-oxygen dimers and in part by direct hydroxylation but not from the carbon-carbon dimers. These photooxidation results differ substantially from those reported for chemical or electrochemical oxidationsof phenol; we find 2, 2'-dihydroxybiphenyl as the only isolable product in the oxidation of phenol with permanganate or ferricyanide. The irradiation of thecresols is similar, that is, analogous dimerization and hydroxylation occurs. The dihydroxybenzenes give only dimerization products. p-Quinone yields p-hydroquinone as well as hydroxylated products. The following routes to products appears to hold for the simple phenols.
