Oxidative electron transfer cycloreversion of trans,trans-2-cyclopropyl-4-methyl-3-phenyloxetane, using triphenylthiapyrylium perchlorate as a photosensitizer, leads to distonic 1,4-radical cations; subsequent cleavage gives rise to fragmentation products (pathway a), whereas nucleophilic trapping by acetonitrile affords a ring expanded oxazine (pathway b). ; MICINN (Grants CTQ-2010-14882, CTQ-2009-13699 and JCI-2010- 06204) ; CSIC (JAEDOC 101-2011) ; Generalitat Valenciana (Grant No. GV/2012/041-20120205) ; Pérez Ruiz, R.; Jiménez Molero, MC.; Miranda Alonso, MÁ.; Domingo, LR.
