Abstract
Different photochemical behavior between 3,6‐ and 2,5‐di‐t‐butyl‐3__H__‐azepine was observed. The former gave wavelength dependent products 3,5‐di‐t‐butylpyridine on irradiation through Pyrex filter via photolysis and 4,7‐di‐t‐butyl‐2‐azabicyclo[3.2.0]hepta‐2,6‐diene on irradiation through quartz filter via photo‐isomerization. Meanwhile, 2,5‐di‐t‐butyl derivative gave exclusively a labile 2,5‐di‐t‐butyl‐6‐azabicyclo‐[3.2.0]hepta‐2,6‐diene on irradiation through Pyrex filter via hitherto unknown photoisomerization mode of the bond formation between 2‐ and 6‐position of the ring.
