title: Inter- and intramolecular photochemical reactions of fleroxacin.
abstract: In the cation formed by photoinduced C-F bond cleavage in fleroxacin, intramolecular reaction with the N-ethyl chain is prevented by the electron-withdrawing effect of fluorine and intermolecular attack by nucleophiles is facilitated.
