Abstract

The direct photolyses at 185 nm of some naturally occurring and related bichromophoric alkenes possessing hydroxyl or methoxycarbonyl group at an allylic, homoallylic, or remote position gave the geometrical isomers as the major photoproducts detectable on gas chromatography. The isomerization yield was highly sensitive to the functional group introduced and its position; allylic alkenols gave poor yields, while both functionalization ...
