The photochemical 1,3-addition reaction of benzene, several alkyl benzenes, and anisole to a variety of linear, monocyclic, and bicyclic olefins has been studied from both mechanistic and synthetic points of view. The addition takes place with retention of the stereochemistry at the olefin and with a high degree of orientational specificity. The reaction is believed to originate in the lowest singlet excited state of the aromatic and may involve an exciplex as an intermediate. The quantum yields for the addition at the limit of the olefin concentration fall in a range from 0.1 to 0.5. A model for the exciplex which accounts for all of the observations and has considerable predictive value for the reactivity and orientational effects that are observed in different olefins has been proposed. Two classes of reactions of the photochemical adducts have been investigated in detail. These are the thermal rearrangements, particularly of the adducts of benzene to cyclobutene, and the acid catalyzed rearrangements. All of the 1,3-adducts are sensitive to pyrolysis. At about 280 degrees, in the vapor phase in a static system, the reactions that are observed are reversal of the photoaddition, a 1,5-sigmatropic shift of hydrogen, and the vinylcyclopropane rearrangement. The adducts of cyclobutene also undergo a (2'-vinylcyclopropyl) cyclobutane rearrangement, a hitherto unknown 1,5-sigmatropic shift of a C-C bond. The course of this reaction has been studied by deuterium labeling. Acid catalyzed opening of the 1,3-adducts results in the breaking of the cyclopropane ring to give bicyclo 3.2.1 octane-8-01 derivatives. The sterochemistry of this rearrangement was established.

The breadth of scientific and technological interests in the general topic of photochemistry is truly enormous and includes, for example, such diverse areas as microelectronics, atmospheric chemistry, organic synthesis, non-conventional photoimaging, photosynthesis, solar energy conversion, polymer technologies, and spectroscopy. This Specialist Periodical Report on Photochemistry aims to provide an annual review of photo-induced processes that have relevance to the above wide-ranging academic and commercial disciplines, and interests in chemistry, physics, biology and technology. In order to provide easy access to this vast and varied literature, each volume of Photochemistry comprises sections concerned with photophysical processes in condensed phases, organic aspects which are sub-divided by chromophore type, polymer photochemistry, and photochemical aspects of solar energy conversion. Volume 34 covers literature published from July 2001 to June 2002. Specialist Periodical Reports provide systematic and detailed review coverage in major areas of chemical research. Compiled by teams of leading authorities in the relevant subject areas, the series creates a unique service for the active research chemist, with regular, in-depth accounts of progress in particular fields of chemistry. Subject coverage within different volumes of a given title is similar and publication is on an annual or biennial basis.

Specialist Periodical Reports provide systematic and detailed review coverage of progress in the major areas of chemical research. Written by experts in their specialist fields the series creates a unique service for the active research chemist, supplying regular critical in-depth accounts of progress in particular areas of chemistry. For over 80 years the Royal Society of Chemistry and its predecessor, the Chemical Society, have been publishing reports charting developments in chemistry, which originally took the form of Annual Reports. However, by 1967 the whole spectrum of chemistry could no longer be contained within one volume and the series Specialist Periodical Reports was born. The Annual Reports themselves still existed but were divided into two, and subsequently three, volumes covering Inorganic, Organic and Physical Chemistry. For more general coverage of the highlights in chemistry they remain a 'must'. Since that time the SPR series has altered according to the fluctuating degree of activity in various fields of chemistry. Some titles have remained unchanged, while others have altered their emphasis along with their titles; some have been combined under a new name whereas others have had to be discontinued.
