Intramolecular photochemical reactions of 4-(.omega.-alkenyloxy)-6-methyl-2-pyrones having an alkoxycarbonyl group at the olefinic carbon chain
摘要:
Photochemical reactions of 4-(omega-alkenyloxy)-6-methyl-2-pyrones 4-8 were investigated. Photosensitized reactions of 2-pyrones 4-6 gave intramolecular [2 + 2] cycloadducts 14-16 as oxatricyclic lactones, site-, regio- and stereospecifically, but 7 and 8 gave no products. On the other hand, direct irradiations of 4 and 5 afforded cyclobutenecarboxylic acids 19 and 20, respectively. The intramolecular cycloaddition mechanism was also explained from the excited state of 2-pyrone calculated by means of the MNDO-CI method.
