5. Experimental
All reactions were carried our under argon. Benzene
was distilled over sodium-benzophenone. Other solvents
and reagents were reagent grade and were used without
prior purification. Chromatographic separations were
carried out using silica gel 60 (Merck, 230–400 mesh
ASTM). NMR spectra were recorded in CDCl3 on a
Varian Gemini 200BB (200 MHz for H) spectrometer.
IR spectra were recorded in CHCl3 on a Biorad 175C
apparatus.
5.4. Synthesis of 6
Benzyl chloride (43 ll, 0.37 mmol) was added to the
solution of 4 (77 mg, 0.15 mmol) in DMF (10 ml) at r.t.
After 30 min stirring the colourless precipitate of TlCl
was filtered off and the solvent evaporated under vac-
uum. Column chromatography (eluent-chloroform) af-
forded 6 as a yellow crystalline solid. Analytical sample
was recrystallized from chloroform–hexane. Yield: 30
mg (53%).

53.40; H, 3.00; N, 7.34%.
A magnetically stirred solution of FpI (151 mg, 0.5
mmol) in benzene (15 ml) and diisopropylamine (1 ml),
containing suspended parabanic acid (112 mg, 2 mmol)
was photolysed (4 ꢁ 150 W tungsten lamp and external
cooling with ice-water) for 2 h. The solid residue was
filtered off and washed with benzene. The solvent was
evaporated from the filtrate and the residue dissolved in
chloroform–methanol (25:1) and chromatographed us-
ing the same solvent mixture as eluent. Two yellow
fractions were collected: the first one containing 3 and
the second containing 2. Analytical samples were pre-
pared by crystallisation from chloroform–hexane.
Yields: 3: 20 mg (17%); 2: 56 mg (40%).
5.5. Synthesis of 7
Ethyl bromoacetate (113 ll, 1 mmol) was added to
the solution of 4 (254 mg, 0.5 mmol) in DMF (15 ml) at
r.t. After 30 min stirring the colourless precipitate of
TlBr was filtered off and the solvent evaporated under
vacuum. Column chromatography (eluent-chloroform)
afforded 7 as an yellow oil. Yield: 165 mg (88%).
1H NMR (d, ppm): 5.21 (s, 5H, Cp), 4.26 (s, 2H,

ml of 0.1 M aq. HCl and heated to 50 °C for 5 h. Ex-
traction with CH2Cl2 and chromatography (SiO2,
