2-n-Propylcyclopentanone” appears to be the first instance in which the Norrish type I1 reaction has been observed to involve an alicyclic ketone. Bamford and Norrish [J. Chem. Xoc., 1521 (1938)] found that 1-menthone was photolyzed almost exclusively by this mechanism to propylene and 3-methylcyclohexanone.
