Abstract
AbstractThe irradiation of β‐enaminones, generated in situ from cyclic 1,3‐diketones and activated alkenes leads to polyheterocyclic skeletons. The photoproduct chemoselectivity depends on the type of cyclic 1,3‐diketones employed viz., 2‐acetylcyclopentanone and 2‐acetylcyclohexanone. The observed chemoselectivity was rationalized based on the Dieckmann‐Kon rule.
