Abstract

In the present work, the photooxygenation of N-(2-thiazolyl) sulfanilamide, 2-(4-thiazolyl) benzimidazole and thiacetazone in presence of methyl orange as a sensitizer under 125 W mercury vapour lamp has been reported under different conditions (acidic, neutral, and alkaline). Structures of the products have been established by spectral and elemental analysis.
