Solid-state photodimerization of 2-phenylethenyl enamides

Enamides 3a-c and 6 crystallize in α-packing modes with short intermolecular distances of 3.7-4.0 A between alkene carbon atoms of adjacent molecules related by a center of symmetry. Irradiation at 350 nm of these crystalline tertiary phenylethenyl enamides affords head-to-tail dimers 8a-c and 9, respectively, in 87-92% yield, in marked contrast to the E to Z isomerization that is the exclusive reaction upon solution irradiation of enamides 3a and 6.

Synthesis of pyrrolidin-2-ones by 5-endo-trigonal radical cyclisation of N-vinyl-2,2-bis(phenylsulfanyl)acetamides

A series of N-methyl-N-(1-substituted or 1,2-disubstituted vinyl)-2,2-bis(phenylsulfanyl)acetamides, upon treatment with tributyltin hydride in the presence of a catalytic amount of AIBN in boiling toluene, underwent smooth cyclisation in a 5-endo-trig ma
