Photochemical formation of 5-oxabicyclo[2,1,1]hexan-2-ones from unsaturated 1,2-diketones
Abstract
5-Oxabicyclo[2,1,1]hexan-2-ones are formed on photolysis of both βγ- and γδ-unsaturated acyclic 1,2-diketones, the formation from the latter involving an initial migration of the double bond via a cyclobutanol intermediate.
