The mechanism of the photo-rearrangement reaction of 4-alkoxy-2-methylquinoline 1-oxides (Ia-d) in methanol is discussed.}, pages = {1813--1819}, title = {A Novel Synthesis of Revenine and Related Alkaloids by Means of a Photo-rearrangement Reaction of 4-Alkoxy-2-methylquinoline 1-Oxides}, volume = {27}, year = {1979} }
