A photochemical study of crystalline dibenzobarrelene diesters : the di-[pi]-methane photorearrangement in the solid state

The di-π-methane photorearrangement has been investigated for the first time in the solid state. A series of symmetric (-CO₂R₁ = -CO₂R₂) and mixed (-CO₂R₁ ≠CO₂R₂) 11,12-dibenzobarrelene diesters, used as the model substrates, reacted in the solid state with efficiencies that are similar to those obs...
