Irradiations (I2-CCl4 filter solution, 340-420 nm) of substituted anthracenes with a large excess of cyclohepta-1,3,5-triene in various solvents afforded a variety of photoaddition products in moderate yields.These periselective formations are explained in terms of the following controlling factors: (1) orbital interactions, (2) steric interactions.
