IUPAC definition : Photosubstitution in aromatic compounds with the participation of nucleophiles.;
Scope note : while electrophilic substitution is the most common reaction on aromatic compounds
in the ground state, nucleophilic substitution is typical for the excited states of
these compounds. some electrophilic aromatic photosubstitutions (upon excitation of
the aromatic substrate) have been reported.;
