Photolysis of 1,1,1-Triarylalk-2-enes and 1,1,1-Triarylhept-2-ynes. A Novel Generation of Aryl(alk-1-enyl)carbenes ans Aryl(alk-1-ynyl)carbenes

Upon UV irradiation in methanol, 1,1,1-triarylhept-2-ynes underwent an α,α-elimination of two aryl groups to give a biaryl and the corresponding carbene which reacted with methanol to give a 1-aryl-1-methoxyhept-2-yne. 1,1,1-Triphenylalk-2-enes underwent α,α-elimination of two phenyl groups and also elimination of an alkene and a phenyl group to give biphenyl and a 1-phenylalkene respectively.In both cases, the corresponding carbenes were formed and were isolated as methanol insertion products (a 1-methoxy-1-phenylalk-2-ene and diphenylmethyl methyl ether, respectively).A rearrangement product, a 1,1,2-triphenylcyclopropane, was also formed.
Photochemistry of Arylbutadienes. Part 2. Preparation and Photochemistry of 1-(Substituted-aryl)butadienes. A Ground-state Substituent Effect on an Excited-state Reaction

Yields and quantum yields are reported for the photoaddition of methanol to 1-phenylbutadiene and eight substituted 1-phenylbutadienes.For allyl and homoallyl products log Φ correlates more satisfactorily with ground-state substituent constants than with excited-state constants; for cyclopropylmethyl products, no correlation is observed with either set of constants.
