Abstract

A series of enyne− allenes, with and without benzannulation at the ene moiety and equipped with aromatic and carbonyl groups as internal triplet sensitizer units at the allene terminus, was synthesized. Both sets, the cyclohexenyne− allenes and benzenyne− allenes, underwent thermal C2− C6 cyclization exclusively to formal ene products. In contrast, the photochemical C2− C6 cyclization of enyne− allenes provided formal Diels− Alder and/or ...
