Abstract :
Photodimerization of methyl 3-alkoxyl-2-naphthoates with chiral auxiliaries in the alkoxyl groups (1a and 1b) in organic solutions results in cubane-like photodimers. Asymmetric induction up to 90% diastereomeric excess (de) has been achieved and the absolute configuration of the pair of the diastereomers has been established.
Keywords :
