Abstract

When photolysis and pyrolysis fail, how can the ring-opening of methylenepropene (1) be induced to give trimethylenemethane (2), the first member of the series of non-Kekulé hydrocarbons? Can enough 2 be generated for the spectroscopic study of this highly reactive species? These questions are answered in this communication.
