Abstract
Photo-oxidation of thiouracil was carried out using eosin yellow,
rose bengal and methylene blue as dye sensitizers. After completion
of reaction two products were isolated and characterised as thiourea
and acetyl thiourea by physical, chemical and spectral methods. A
mechanism has been proposed for this reaction.
