Abstract: The photochemical transformation of 1-cyclohexenyl phenyl ketone (1) to the hexanhydro-fluorenone 2 ("photo-Nazarov cyclization") was reinvestigated on the level of conventional preparative chemistry backed up by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and deuteration experiments. Hitherto unreported intermediates were detected. These include the enol 8 and, in non-protic media, the crystalline dimers 3 and 4. Dimer 3, which was characterized by single-crystal X-ray analysis, is a kinetically stable non-conjugated enol which readily isomerizes to 4 on acid-base catalysis. Dimer 4 is photolysed to give ultimately 2. The enol 8 is sufficiently long-lived to be seen in the H-1 NMR spectra of freshly irradiated solutions of 1 in CD3OD and of 4 in CD3OD or CD3CN before it isomerizes to 2. Enol 3 results from trapping of the oxyallyl 7, the presumed precursor of the enol 8, by 8 in a novel type of reaction. Irradiation of 1 in the presence of 1,3-cyclopentadiene (CPD) gives adducts 10-16. Adducts 13-16 appear to be derived from 7, whereas 10, 11 and 12 possess the structures of Diels-Alder adducts of CPD to the trans-cyclohexene isomer of 1 (6). The intermediacy of 6 as the primary photoproduct is also suggested by further circumstantial evidence.
