Abstract

In the absorption of various reagents at the double bond of organic compounds it has been noted that in some cases a different product was obtained when the absorption was carried out in the presence of ultra-violet light. This difference has been frequently explained on the basis that the polarity of the reagent being absorbed was changed by the ultra-violet light. The question has been raised as to whether the difference was actually due to the change in polarity in the double bond.
