The photochemistry of trans-1,4,4,4-tetraphenyl-but-2-en-1-one: A highly efficient aryl migration (type B) enone photorearrangement

Abstract: 4,4, in acetonitrile or benzene leads to trans-cis isomerization (7) along with rearrangement to trans-1-benzoyl-2,2,3-triphenylcyclopropane (8). Formation of the latter product represents a new example of the aryl migration (type B) enone photorearrangement reaction first reported by Zimmerman and co-workers for 4,4-diphenylcyclohex-2-en-1-one (1). The quantum yield in the case of enone 3 (0.4) is approximately 10 times greater than that for 4,4,-diphenylcyclohex-2-en-1-one, a result that is ascribed to steri… Show more

“…Trans-1,4,4,4-tetraphenylbut-2-en-1-one 35 undergoes a Type B aryl migration enone photorearrangement to give trans-1-benzoyl-2,2,3-triphenylcyclopropane 36, as well as trans-cis isomerization (Scheme 14). 23 p-Substituted 5-aryl-5-phenylcyclohexenones 37 underwent Type C enone rearrangements to give a 1 : 1 ratio of diastereomeric bicyclic ketones 38 and 39 (Scheme 15). 24 Irradiation of 2-(p-tolyloxy)indoles 40 gave rearranged and reduction products rather than electrocyclization products (Scheme 16).…”
