Use of HMPT as solvent in photochemistry allows efficient photoreductions. Alkyl esters and especially non absorbing alkyl acetates are photoreduced in excellent yields into alkanes. In the latter case, a protonating agent is necessary. Numerous examples illustrate the generality and convenience of the reaction. This photoreduction involves an electron transfer from HMPT to ester.
