✦ Synopsis


The meta-substituted polyketones l,b -f_, including the parent ketone 12, afforded approximately similar values for the quantum yield of benzocyclobutenol formation (o,,), the triplet lifetime (T), ET, and ~~~~~ respectively. In contrast, mCB, T, ET, and ~~~~ of the para-substituted polyketones 2 -2 depended on their molecular structures. Despite extensive photochemical study concerning monocarbonyl compounds,* that of conjugated polycarbonyl compounds is scarce.3 We have studied the photocyclization of 2,4,6-tri-
