Abstract
Abstract 2-(1-naphthyl)ethyl vinyl ether undergoes intramolecular 1,2- photocycloaddition whereas the 2-naphthyl isomer yields a product reflecting dimerisation and loss of the elements of acetylene: consistent with such diverse photochemistry, the addition of 2,3-dihydropyran to naphthalene produces only the 1,2-, 1′,2′regioisomer.
