Abstract

AbstractThe present article deals with the primary photochemical reactions of carbonyl compounds commonly used as photoinitiators. It is shown that radical formation results mainly from three processes, i.e. hydrogen abstraction, β‐cleavage, and α‐cleavage. The difference in the suitability of the radicals for chain initiation is discussed.
