Light-induced stereospecific intramolecular [2+2]-cycloaddition of atropisomeric 3,4-dihydro-2-pyridones

Atropisomeric 3,4-dihydro-2-pyridones undergo stereospecific [2+2]-photocycloaddition in solution with high stereoselectivity (ee > 98% and de > 96%) in the product. The chiral transfer during phototransformation was rationalized based on the stability/reactivity of the biradical.
