Signal intensities are given as weak (W), medium (M), or strong (S) as defined in the Supporting Information. Blank entries mean no signal was observed above the threshold intensity.

b

There is also weak overlapping photoproduct generated with the same chemical formula in the control photolysis of pyruvic acid.
