Description

The regioselectivities in [2+2]photocycloadditions of 2-cyclohexenone(1) to methyl cycloalkenecarboxylates(2-4) give drastic different experimental results depending on the ring size of the cycloalkenecarboxylates, that is to say that a gradual reversal of regioselectivity from head-to-head(hh) to head-to-tail(ht) adducts with the increasing ring size. We have located the roots of the regioselective difference by performing the frontier molecular orbital(FMO) and transition state(TS) analysis using MOPAC. We could explain that for methyl cyclobutenecarboxlate(2) TS energy differences of the second-step and back-reaction as well as the first-step has effects for the regioselectivities and for methyl cyclohexenecarboxylate(4) TS energy of the first-steps is the most important factor deciding the regioselectivities. In addition, We also report the results of the ab initio calculations in these TS geometrical optimizations.
