Outlined here are studies exploring the scope of the sequential photoelectrocyclization, [1,5]-hydride shift of conjugated bis-aryl cycloalkenone substrates. We have found not only that the cyclization precursors can be synthesized in a modular fashion but also that the cyclization is efficient and amenable to the presence of a range of cycloalkenones and aromatic systems. Among the interesting discoveries from this work is that the electrocyclization intermediate can be competitively captured w ...[more]
