TY - JOUR A1 - Wessig, Pablo A1 - Matthes, Annika A1 - Pick, Charlotte T1 - The photo-dehydro-Diels-Alder (PDDA) reaction T2 - Organic & biomolecular chemistry : an international journal of synthetic, physical and biomolecular organic chemistry N2 - The photo-dehydro-Diels-Alder (PDDA) reaction is a valuable extension of the classical Diels-Alder (DA) reaction. The PDDA reaction differs from the DA reaction by the replacement of one of the C-C-double bonds of the diene moiety by a C-C triple bond and by the photochemical triggering of the reaction. This entails that, in contrast to the DA reaction, the PDDA reaction proceeds according to a multistage mechanism with biradicals and cycloallenes as intermediates. The PDDA reaction provides access to a considerable variety of compound classes. For example, 1-phenylnaphthlenes, 1,1'-binaphthyls, N-heterocyclic biaryls, and naphthalenophanes could be obtained by this reaction.
