Abstract

Successful isolation of “ortho” and “para”-acylcyclohexadienones allowed us to comparatively study their ground-and excited-state behavior under a variety of conditions. In neutral solutions, the two isomeric cyclohexdienones showed completely different reactivities for photochemical and thermal reactions, while in acidic methanol both quantitatively afforded the corresponding transesterification product and naphthol. These ...
