Irradiation of trans-stilbene oxide with naphthalene-1,4-dicarbonitrile as sensitiser in the presence of electron deficient dipolarophiles leads, via a presumed carbonyl ylide, to various dihydro- and tetrahydro-furans.This chemistry is extended, for the
The Photochemistry of 2,3-Bis(p-methoxyphenyl)oxirane: Trapping of a C-C Cleaved Intermediate in an Electron-transfer Sensitised Process
Clawson, Paul,Lunn, Patricia M.,Whiting, Donald A.
, p. 134 - 135 (2007/10/02)
2,3-Bis(p-methoxyphenyl)oxirane (6) rearranges, with C-O cleavage, to the carbonyl compounds (8) and (9) on irradiation, direct or triplet sensitised, and thermally; in contrast C-C cleavage is observed with dicyanoanthracene as electron-transfer sensitiser, and the resulting intermediate can be trapped by dipolarophiles in synthetically useful reactions.
