Asymmetric induction in the solid state photoisomerization of some three-membered ring compounds

The ionic chiral auxiliary approach to asymmetric induction was investigated in two types of photoisomerizations of cyclopropyl compounds in the solid state. Three different tri-substituted cyclopropyl carboxylic acids were prepared. Upon irradiation, the achiral starting materials undergo cis-tr...
