— The sensftized photooxidation of methyl β ionylidene acetates (I) in methanol was studied. After reduction three products were isolated and their structures determined: a peroxide (II) and two isomeric alcohols (III and IV). The formation of (IV) is particularly interesting, its allenic structure being closely related to those of several important carotenoids.
