Photochemical reactions of various N-(α,β-unsaturated carbonyl)benzoylformamides both in solution and in a solid state were investigated. Under homogeneous conditions, all acyclic imides underwent photochemical 2 + 2 cycloaddition that resulted in the production of bicyclic oxetanes. N-Isopropyl- and N-benzyl-N-tigloylbenzoylformamides crystallized in a chiral space group, and the photolysis in the solid state yielded corresponding optically-active oxetanes. N-Tigloylbenzoylformanilide underwent cis-trans isomerization to yield a photostationary state (cis/trans = 1.3). Solid state oxetane formation of N-benzyl- and N-(o-tolyl)- and N-(2,6-xylyl)-N-tigloylbenzoylformamides progressed via the crystal-to-crystal pathway which was followed by X-ray powder diffraction. N-Benzyl-N-methacryloylbenzoylformamide crystallized in a chiral space group, and the solid state reaction led to an optically active β-lactam via topochemically-controlled hydrogen abstraction by the alkenyl carbon atom. Photolysis of N-isopropyl-N-methacryloylbenzoylformamide in the solid state led to both oxetane formation and a transformation to azetidine-2,4-dione involving a 1,5- benzoyl shift.

N-Benzoylformyl α,β-unsaturated amides (1) underwent intramolecular cycloaddition to produce bicyclic imides, 1-phenyl-6-oxa-3-azabicyclopentane-2,4-diones (2), in good yield.Quantum yields for reaction of N-benzyl, N-(p-tolyl), and N-(2,6-xylyl)-N-benzoylformylmethacrylamide were 0.56, 0.04, and 0.10, respectively.
