  • Abstract
    Photoirradiation of tris(2-benzo[b]thienyl)methyl alcohol in acetonitrile afforded a cyclopentanone compound and a benzo[b]thiophene-condensed tropone derivative. The former is interpreted to originate via the di-π-methane rearrangement using the unsaturated bonds in two thiophene rings, while the latter via trimerization of the unsaturated bonds in three thiophene rings.
