Photocatalysis (V) cyclotrimerisation of cycloheptene
When copper(I) triflate·cis-cycloheptene is irradiated in solution, a complex copper(I) triflate·trans-cycloheptene is formed. From the latter compound an all-trans cyclic trimer is formed in 80% yield in a thermal reaction. The mechanism of this cyclotrimerisation is discussed
