Abstract

Photochemical reaction is a chemical reaction initiated by the absorption of energy in the form of light resulting in different types of reaction. Chromones, bischromones and anthraquinones are the bichromophoric molecules which contain the carbonyl group and double bond in conjugation. Photochemical reactions of these compounds result in the formation of such molecules which are not obtained via conventional methods. This review article describes the photochemical transformations of chromones, bischromones and anthraquinone derivatives and here main emphasis has been laid upon the intramolecular photochemical H-abstraction reactions that provide many exotic heterocyclics as the final photoproducts.
