Özet

We developed an efficient method that enables selective photodimerization of 5-arylpenta-2,4-dienoic acids (i.e., vinylogous cinnamic acids). The use of 1,8-dihydroxynaphthalene as a template ensures proximity of the two reacting olefins so that irradiation of template-bound dienoic acids gives mono [2 + 2] cycloaddition products in good to excellent yields (up to 99%), as single regioisomers, and with high diastereoselectivities (dr = 3:1 to 13:1). The geometrical and stereochemical features of compounds 12a, 16a, and 22a were analyzed by X-ray crystallography.
