Carbonium-ion photochemistry: the benzenonium–bicyclo[3,1,0]hexenyl cation photoisomerisation

Abstract

The photochemical conversion of protonated durene in fluorosulphuric acid into a bicyclo[3,1,0]hexenyl cation has been shown to proceed by a symmetry-allowed distrotatory closure rather than by a [σ2a+π2a]cycloaddition reaction.
