A triplet quantum chain process is believed to be responsible for the concentration dependent quantum yield of isomerization of 7-cis-retinal.

The enolate of prenal 1 prepared from the corresponding silyl enol ether 2 or enol acetate 3 led to a γ-regiospecific reaction with polyunsaturated aldehydes 4 yielding dihydropyrans 5 leading after hydrolysis to polyenals 7. This process allows the introduction of the isoprenyl skeleton. A synthesis of retinal, from β-ionylidenacetaldehyde is reported.
