## Receded 7 February 1969 Calculations on the planar and twisted configurations of a number of polyenes and related compounds show that photo and thermal isonerization occur through two, conceptually different mechanisms. The cis-trans isomerization about a 'formal' double bond can, conceptually

The rate of y-ray-induced trans -cis isomerization of stilbene in dilute toluene solutions from -95o to A1OOo shows a maximum at about -25O. The results are interpreted in terms of interplay of opposing reactions. and of the role of triplet toluene.
vis linear dichroism spectra of trans-and cis-azobenzene in stretched poly(ethylene) (PE) films are reported. Trans --,cis photo-isomerization kinetics were measured at 337 nm using polarized light with the electric vector either parallel or perpendicular to the stretching direction of the matrix. T
