Description/Abstract
Contrary to expectation rhodium carbenoids do not undergo cycloaddition to the 2H-pyran unit of the isomeric naphthopyrans 3 and 5. With 3, a naphtho[2,1-b]pyran-8-ylacetate, 4 is formed and a novel merocyanine dye 6 results from a cycloaddition across the C-5-C-6 double bond of the naphtho[1,2-b]pyran 5. Tethering the carbenoid to the naphtho[1,2-b]pyran system 5, as in 10, results in a similar mode of addition and affords the intensely coloured tetracycle 11.
