Benzene bond breaking sequence

In Figure 2.30 the bond-breaking sequences for ethylene and benzene chemisorbed on the Rh(l 11) surface are compared. At low temperatures the structures of the chemisorbed molecules are different. As the temperature is increased, benzene appears to break into three short-lived acetylene molecules, which become C2H spe-... [Pg.417]

In the formation of tetraenes from bicyclo[4.2.0]octa-2,4-dienes, two bonds are broken. This may occur in one concerted reaction which can be regarded as a retro [2 + 2] cycloaddition. It is also possible that the central bond, being part of a cyclohexadiene system, is the first one to break in a thermal, concerted disrota-tory process that leads to a 1,3,5-cyclooctatriene derivative. Ring opening of the cyclooctatriene then might take place photochemically, again disrotatory, to produce a tetraene. This two-step sequence was first observed by Mirbach et al. [114] in their study of the photocycloaddition of the two parent molecules benzene and ethene. The same explanation for the formation of a tetraene was given by Nuss et al. [160] in their report on the intramolecular ortho photocycloaddition of ( )-6-(2-methoxyphenyl)-5,5-dimethyl-2-hexenenitrile (see Scheme 40). [Pg.112]
