✦ Synopsis


Triplet 2-butene-1,3-diyl (T-11) was generated on irradiation of 1-methylcyclopropene (10) in a bromine-doped xenon matrix and was characterized by means of IR spectroscopy for the first time. Experimental results suggest that triplet propene-1,3-diyl (T-3) is formed from cyclopropene (1) under similar conditions. In accordance with theoretical calculations, the experimental data indicate that the reactions 1 33 and 10 311 are the lowest energy ground-state pathways for the ring opening of 1 and 10, respectively.
