Abstract
Despite 9-methylbenz[c]acridine and diphenylacetic acid are achiral molecules, chiral cocrystal was obtained by crystallization from the solution. Irradiation of the enantiomorphous cocrystals caused photodecarboxylation to afford almost racemic photodecarboxylative condensation product as one of the minor products. Reason for the unsuccessful absolute asymmetric photoreaction was discussed based on the molecular arrangement in the lattice.
