✦ Synopsis


We recently reported the singlet-state photochemical rearrangement of 3-methylene-2,2,5,5-tetramet~lcyclohexanone (1) via a 1,3-sigmatropic acyl shift to 3,3-dimethyl-5-isopropylidenecyclohexanone (g).", However, 17~-acetoyy-4,4-dimetQrl-19-norandrost-5-en-3-one (3)isknown to undergo a triplet-state 1,2-acyl shift to the cycloproWlketone steroid Cft) .5 Asapartial
