Novel (3 + 2) photocycloadditions with 3-(1-alkynyl)cyclohexenones and tetramethylethylene

Abstract

Irradiation of 3-alkynylcyclohexenones (3) with tetramethylethylene gives rise to novel (3 + 2) cycloadducts that can be explained mechanistically in terms of closure of an initial biradical (6) to a vinyl carbene (7), followed by stabilization of the carbene.
