Abstract: | Irradiation of acetophenone or benzophenone in the presence of norbornadiene or quadricyclene gives 1: 1-adducts. These arise via reaction of the ketone triplet with the quadricyclene. Similar reactivity is exhibited in an intramolecular sense by 7-phenacylnorbornadiene and the corresponding quadricyclene. Addition of triplet benzophenone to 5-methylene norbornene is regiospecific in contrast to expectations based on a comparison of the reactivities of 2-methylenenorbornane and norbornene. The possibility is raised that, in contrast to the simple olefins and the quadricyclenes, exciplexes formed by reaction of the rigid homoconjugated dienes with the triplet ketone are endo orientated with participation of both double bounds. |
