ChemInform Abstract: Control by Pyridine Nitrogen of the Dual-Channeled Triplet-State Di-π- methane Photorearrangement of 5,8-Dihydro-5,8-methanoquinoline Systems.
Abstract
The methanoquinolines (I) undergo di-π-methane photorearrangement, producing mixtures of the regioisomers (II) and (III).
ChemInform Abstract
The methanoquinolines (I) undergo di-π-methane photorearrangement, producing mixtures of the regioisomers (II) and (III). The influence of the substituents on the regioselectivity is discussed by means of frontier molecular orbital theory.
