On irradiation with (E)-anethole in benzene 10-hydroxymethyl-9-phenanthrenecarboxylic lactone (STL) gave an intramolecular cycloadduct, a cyclobutane derivative, while 8-hydroxymethyl-9-phenanthrenecarboxylic lactone (SCL) afforded both of a cyclobutane with the same conformation and an olefinic product derived from an oxetane precursor, the carbonyl adduct.The formation of cycloadducts of highly different structures in SCL was ascribed to competitive collapse of the involved exciplex to the products.
