Irradiation ( >300 nm ) of naphtalene (1, 0.1M) and trans-cyclooctene (2t, 0.1M) yielded the cis-isomer (2c) and three 1:1 adducts 3-5, whereas 2c (0.1M) did not give any products under the same conditions.A singlet mechanism is proposed on the basis of Stern-Volmer studies on fluorescence, singlet lifetime, and the adduct formation.
