Abstract
The crystal structure of the photodimer of 2-benzyl-5-benzylidenecyclopentanone was determined using a recrystallized crystal. It was identical to that of an as-photoirradiated dimer crystal obtained by a single-crystal-to-single-crystal photoreaction of the monomer. This suggests that the starting material already possesses the most favored crystal phase for the products.
