The 4,4′-(1,2-ethanediyl)bisbenzyl biradical: Its generation, detection, and (photo)chemical behavior in solution

The 4,4′-(1,2-ethanediyl)bisbenzyl biradical (2) is clearly and efficiently generated by photolysis of [3.2]paracyclophane-2-one (8) in cyclohexane solution. This intermediate is also formed via two-photon processes from [2.2]paracyclophane (3) and 1,2-bi
