Diastereoselective intramolecular [4 + 4] photocycloaddition reaction of N-(naphthylcarbonyl)anthracene-9-carboxamides: temperature effects and reversal of diastereoselectivity

Abstract

Intramolecular diastereoselective [4 + 4] photocycloadditions of acyclic imides 1a and 1b possessing anthracene and naphthalene moieties were carried out in the solid state and in solution. For 1a, novel reversal of diastereoselectivity was observed on changing the reaction phase. The diastereomeric excess was changed from −60% de in the solid state at 60 °C to 70% de in acetone at −78 °C. Almost 100% de was observed for the solid-state photocycloaddition of 1b. The reactivity of 1a in the solid state was discussed based on its single crystal X-ray analysis.
