Abstract

Earlier work on the photochemistry of α-sulfonyloxyketones uncovered their propensity to form the corresponding α-keto carbonium ions on photolysis. Typical reactions such as intramolecular cyclizations, carbonium ion rearrangements, and solvent trapping were found. This paper describes an attempt to extend this reaction to a general synthetic technique for polyene cyclizations. During the course of this work two other major reaction ...
