The present review deals with the synthetic aspects of the most important types of di-π-
methane rearrangements. The survey is limited to the all-carbon di-π-methane, the oxa-di-π …

The second edition of this best-selling handbook is bigger, more comprehensive, and now
completely current. In addition to thorough updates to the discussions featured in the first …

Irradiation of substituted 2-benzylidenecyclopentanone O-alkyl and O-acetyloximes in
methanol provides a convenient synthesis of alkyl, alkoxy, hydroxy, acetoxy, amino …

Carbohydrate‐based benzylidene acetals undergo reductive ring opening. 1‐β‐O‐Acyl
glucoside conjugates of phenylacetic acids have been synthesized, and their acyl migration …

A novel synthetic route to chrysanthemic acid, 2-cyclopentylidenmethyl-3, 3-
dimethylcyclopropanecarboxylic acid, fluorenespiro-2, 2-dimethylcyclopropanecarboxylic …

The di-π-methane rearrangement with two π-groups bonded to a single carbon leading to π-
substituted cyclopropanes is now well established. The present research had as its goal the …

Triplet-sensitized irradiation of 2-aza-1, 4-dienes affords N-cyclopropylimines via 2-aza-di-π-
methane (2-ADPM) rearrangement pathways. In the case of the pentaphenyl-substituted …

The di‐π‐methane (DPM) rearrangement reaction is one of the most studied photochemical
transformations. The oxa‐di‐π‐methane (ODPM) rearrangement reaction has been …

The oxadi-π-methane rearrangement (ODPM) is considered to represent the normal
photochemical behavior of β, γ-unsaturated ketones in the triplet excited π, π* state …

Synthesis and photochemistry of several title compounds 1− 3 containing multiple
chromophoric systems are described. The Diels− Alder reactions of 2, 6, 6 …
