Abstract
On irradiation of p,p'-bisformyl-substituted trans, trans trans-,6-diphenyl -1,3,5-hexatriene in ethyl iodide, trans, trans, trans --> tuans,cis,tuans isomerization was predominantly observed, which is in contrast to stereosel ective trans, trans trans --> cis, trans, trans isomerization in common org anic solvents.
