Abstract/Summary

Intramolecular alkene-arene meta-photocycloadditions are powerful transformations that use the enhanced reactivity of photoexcited benzene rings to facilitate addition of an alkene 1,3 across donor groups and form complex three-dimensional fused-ring systemsfrom readily accessible starting materials. Intramolecular examples havetraditionallybeen restricted to 3-memberedtethers, with cycloaddition resulting from exo-conformation. However, by judicious tether design we have demonstratedthat a 4-membered tether can also proceed in good yield; interestingly,viaan endo-exciplex(1.2:1) enabling access to both natural product skeletons and interesting scaffolds for medicinal chemistry research.
