An efficient conversion of 2-aroylbenzofurans into arylbenzofurylmethanols through photoreduction has been described. In these molecules, the photo transformation occurred through the initial addition of solvent followed by elimination involving γ-hydrogen abstraction. The photoproduct distribution markedly depends upon the substituent present on the benzofuran moiety.
