The Photo-Fries rearrangement of eight anilides on the surface of dry silica gel has been examined. The rearrangement occurs quite cleanly, giving somewhat more of the para isomer than that obtained in methanolic solution. A test for intermolecularity on the silica gel surface showed that, as in solution, the radical pair intermediates do not separate. This contrasts with the behaviour of a previously reported dibenzyl ketone derivative.

An AICl3–ZnCl2 mixture supported on silica gel is found to be an efficient medium for the Fries rearrangement of acyloxybenzene or naphthalene derivatives in solvent-free conditions under microwave irradiation.

Singlet and triplet benzyl radical pairs have been generated on silica gel by photolysis of a benzyl phenylacetate, a dibenzyl ketone, and a dibenzyl sulfone. The extent of geminate radical recombination has been measured and requires that translational motion of radicals occur on the silica gel surface. This motion was affected by the radical pair multiplicity and the photolysis temperature, but was relatively insensitive to the state of hydration of the silica gel and the presence of coadsorbates. The presence of certain rearranged starting materials, which are not formed in solution, amongst the products from photolysis of both dibenzyl ketone and dibenzyl sulfone on silica gel indicates the restrictions on radical movement on the surface on the shorter timescale of the benzyl–phenylacetyl and benzyl – benzyl sulfonyl radical pairs.
