R. Chebolu et al., Copper(I)-catalyzed intramolecular photocycloadditions of dicyclopentadiene derivatives linked by removable tethers, TETRAHEDR L, 41(16), 2000, pp. 2831-2834
Cu(I)-catalyzed intramolecular [2+2] photocycloadditions of two dicyclopent
adiene derivatives linked by an alkyl chain have been studied. These reacti
ons are regio- and stereoselective and proceed considerably faster than the
corresponding intermolecular reactions. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd. All
