UNEXPECTED REGIOSPECIFICITY IN PHOTOCHEMICAL α-CLEAVAGE OF HYDRINDANONES.
Trendel, J. M.,Albrecht, P.
, p. 1175 - 1178 (1984)
Triterpene derived trans-hydrindanones 1 of the hopane and lupane series undergo highly regiospecific photochemical α-cleavage; they are cleaved in high yields on the least substituted side of the ketone.The more stable cis-hydrindanones 1 exclusively cleave on the more substituted side as expected.
