An Efficient Flow‐Photochemical Synthesis of 5H‐Furanones Leads to an Understanding of Torquoselectivity in Cyclobutenone Rearrangements
An Efficient Flow‐Photochemical Synthesis of 5H‐Furanones Leads to an Understanding of Torquoselectivity in Cyclobutenone Rearrangements
Go with the flow: 4-Hydroxycyclobutenones were efficiently transformed into 5H-furanones using an inexpensive flow-photochemical setup. The results challenge the notion that this and the related thermochemical rearrangement display torquoselectivity in their electrocyclic opening to a vinylketene intermediate. Selectivity in the photochemical rearrangement is due a dichotomous reactivity of the (E)- and (Z)-vinylketene intermediates.

Abstract
Go with the flow: 4-Hydroxycyclobutenones were efficiently transformed into 5H-furanones using an inexpensive flow-photochemical setup. The results challenge the notion that this and the related thermochemical rearrangement display torquoselectivity in their electrocyclic opening to a vinylketene intermediate. Selectivity in the photochemical rearrangement is due a dichotomous reactivity of the (E)- and (Z)-vinylketene intermediates.
