[2+2] Photodimerization of (Z)-4-styrylpyridine through a cation–π interaction: formation of cis–cis–trans dimers
摘要:
The cis-cis-trans cyclobutanes are prepared by photodimerization of (Z)-4-styrylpyridine. A catalytic amount of HCl plays a key role in enhancing the [2+2] photocyclization reactions between (Z)- and (E)-4-styrylpyridines to give r-cct and r-ctc cyclobutane (timers through a cation-pi interaction.
