Base-Induced Chemiluminescence of Acetoxy-Substituted Benzofuran Dioxetanes by an Intramolecular Electron Transfer (CIEEL) Mechanism

Tetraphenylporphine-sensitized photooxygenation of acetoxy-substituted benzofuran derivatives 2 afforded the corresponding benzofuran dioxetanes 3.The base-induced decomposition of these dioxetanes was studied and shown to involve an intramolecular CIEEL
