Abstract

Results The starting ketones 1-3 were easily prepared by treating the. unsubstituted diones with arenesulfonyl chloride in the presence of a base. The absorption spectra of these enones can be considered to be the superposition of the spectra of the corresponding enone and the arenesulfonyl chromophores. An emission spectrum of low intensity was detected when la or Id were excited at 290 and 320 nm, respectively (Figure 1). The ...
