Photolysis of t-butyl-p-quinones: competing 1,4- and 1,5-dipolar cycloadditions of the photoproduct to nitriles and ketones
Abstract
Spirocyclopropyl ketones (XIV), obtained from the photolysis of t-butyl-p-quinones (I;R1= H or But), rearrange to (III) and (IV) and add nitriles and ketones in competitive 1,4- and 1,5-dipolar cycloadditions giving 6- and 7-membered heterocyclic compounds (VII)–(XII).
