Abstract

R 3, R= CH3 l, R= CH3 4,. R= CH~ CHS 2, R= CH2CH3 from position 2l or 2 and 5, s typical ring-opened products6 derived from a cis-ketene? are obtained. In order to study further the structural requirements for these photorearrangements, it was desired to determine the influence on the isomerization when one of the two carbon-carbon double bonds of the cyclohexadienone system belonged to a fused aromatic ring. A reasonable synthesis for ...
