Irradiation of nitrogen-saturated acetonitrile solutions containing ethyl 3-amino-3-phenyl-2-propenoate derivatives with the (Z)-configuration [(Z)-1] and 10-methylacridinium perchlorate (MAP) at wavelengths longer than 340 nm afforded the corresponding pyrrole derivatives in good to high yields without exhibiting a profound effect related to the substituents. An analysis of the Stern-Volmer plots for the fluorescence quenching of MAP by (Z)-1 showed that this sensitizer fluorescence is efficiently quenched, and hence electron transfer is confirmed to be involved in the primary process of the MAP-sensitized cyclization reactions of 1.
