A benzodioxole derivative, 4-(2-(benzodioxol-5-yloxy)ethoxy)benzophenone (BPC2BDO), based on 4-hydroxybenzophenone and sesamol was synthesized, and used as a one-component Type II photoinitiator. The structure of BPC2BDO was characterized by elementary analysis, APCI-MS, (1)H NMR, and (13)C NMR. The rate of decomposition (R(d))
