Di-π-methane photorearrangement of trans-1,3-diphenylpropene upon excitation to higher singlet states in polar solvents

Abstract
A dramatic enhancement of the di-π-methane rearrangement is observed upon excitation of trans-1,3-diphenylpropene (1) to its higher singlet states in acetonitrile, which leads to trans-1,2-diphenylcyclopropane (3) as a major photoproduct.
