Abstract
3-Aza-1-chroma-1,3-butadiene undergoes photochemical [3 + 2] cyclopentannul ation with alkenes and alkynes instead of the expected benzannulation or cy clobutannulation reactions, providing a good method for the synthesis of l- pyrroline and 2H-pyrrole derivatives. This photochemical reaction can be ex tended to molybdenum and tungsten carbene complexes.
