Irradiation at 254 millimicrons transforms 5-ethyldeoxyuridine to deoxyuridine by way of photohydration of the 5,6 bond and elimination of ethanol. At wavelengths to the red side of 265 millimicrons, photodimerization is the principal reaction, with a pronounced oxygen effect. The results are related to the photochemistry of thymidine and of bacteriophages containing incorporated 5-ethyluracil in place of thymine.
