Abstract:Synthesis and Valence Isomerization of 2 , ? -D i h y d r 0 -2 , 2 , 1 , 7 -t e t r a m 1The potential to study the photochemical and thermal valence isomerization shown in Scheme 1 has been our prime incentive to synthesize the cross-conjugated polyene 2.7-dlhydropyrene. We have chosen the blocked and sterically shielded derivative 2,7-dihydro-2,2,7,7-tetramethylpyrene (1) as a model compound to protect the system against polymerization, tautomerization, disproportionation, and oxidation/l/.
