Abstract
The intramolecular [2 + 2] photocycloaddition of bismaleimides leads to cag e diimides 2. Nucleophilic addition on these compounds (NaBH4, RLi, or MeON a) gives rise to various diazatetracyclic 4 and 11 or oxadiazapentacyclic 3 "bowl shaped" alcohols. X-ray analyses of 3c and 11a provide definite stru ctural data concerning these two highly functionalized compounds.
