Mild [2 + 2] photodimerization of enone substrates was induced by donor-acceptor fluorophores. Enone substrates were activated efficiently for anti-head to head dimerizations with a high yield (up to 83%) and high selectivity. The adjustable excited state potential also allows donor-acceptor fluorophores to be used for isomerization of the above substrates, confirming the potential of donor-acceptor fluorophores as energy transfer photocatalysts.

[2+2] Photocycloaddition, for example, the dimerization of chalcones and cinnamic acid derivatives, is a unique strategy to construct cyclobutanes, which are building blocks for a variety of biologically active molecules and natural products. However, most attempts at the above [2+2] addition have focused on solid-state, molten-state, or host–guest systems under ultraviolet-light irradiation in order to overcome the competition of facile geometric isomerization of nonrigid olefins. We report a general and simple method to realize the intermolecular [2+2] dimerization reaction of these acyclic olefins to construct cyclobutanes in a highly regio- and diastereoselective manner in solution under visible light, which provides an efficient solution to a long-standing problem.

The 2:1 hydrogen-bonded cocrystals 1a·ox, la·su, 1a·pht, 1a·fu, 1b·ox, 1c·ox, 1d·ox between trans-cinnamamides (1a-1d) and dicarboxylic acids (ox, su, gl, fu, pht) were prepared and characterized by IR and powder X-ray techniques. The crystal structures of 1a·pht, 1a·ox and 1a·fu were solved by single crystal X-ray diffraction. Phthalic acid (pht) caused β-type photodimerization of trans-cinnamamide (1a) in the cocrystal and functioned as a non-covalent linker like gauche 1,2-diamines in photodimerization of trans-cinnamic acids. Oxalic acid (ox) enforced 1a to take a bilayer structure that is suitable for β-type photodimerization. In the case of fumaric acid (fu), cross photodimerization with 1a occurred to give a cycloadduct 4. For the cocrystals 1a·pht and 1a·fu, pedal-like motion was assumed to occur prior to the dimerization. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd.
