The photolysis of n- and i-propyl propionate has been studied in the temperature range of 30° to 170 °C. The results strongly indicate that the following three primary processes may occur:[Formula: see text][Formula: see text]Based on these primary steps a qualitative explanation may be given for the formation of all reaction products.
