Abstract

Selectivity in organic phototransformations continues to be one of the main topics of current interest.'Of the various approaches use of constrained and ordered media has shown considerable promise. 2 By the utilization of the cage effect3 and conformational control we illustrate below that one can induce molecules included in zeolites to follow reaction pathways that are improbable in isotropic solvents.
