Crystals help control the chemical behavior of reactive intermediates like nitrene, carbine and radicals. The rigid matrix prevents the movement and free diffusion of intermediates and therefore, the solid state reactivity is often more selective than in solution, giving higher region- and stereoselectivities.The photodecomposition of triazolines in solution occur in moderate yields due formation of byproducts.In this work, we present the triazoline photodecomposition in the solid state. And the aziridine obtained is compared with the thermal decomposition product.
