Inter- System Crossing 1 1 Enone Exciplex + 1,4 Biradical 1 Adducts Possibility of alkene isomerization + Reversion to starting materials Product formation Alkene Enone A note on light sources: The source of light is usually a mercury lamp. A filter is usually used to remove light below a certain wavelength. The two most common are Pyrex glass, which allows light with λ > 290 nm to pass, and "uranium" glass, which allows light with λ > 350 nm wavelength to pass. Product Schuster, D.I., et al. Chem.

21 Conclusions A lack of complete mechanistic understanding has not prevented the successful application of the enone-olefin photocycloaddition to a great many synthetic challenges. Intramolecular enone-olefin photocycloaddition is useful for the stereoselective contruction of carbocycles, especially five membered rings. Multiple quaternary and congested centers can be constructed in a single operation. Great creativity is possible in the fragmentation of the derived cyclobutane to access useful synthetic intermediates. Stereoinduction from existing stereocenters is usually explicable in a rational and satisfying manner. Molecular modeling simulations have proven useful in predicting the stereoselectivity of several photocycloadditions. 36A-20-andout 3/31/00 1:49 PM
