Abstract

The preparation of a number of alkyl and alkoxy derivatives of pentacyclo[5.4.0.0(2,6).0(3,10).0(5,9)]undecane-8,11-dione derivatives utilising a cheap, practical, low energy, 'green', single-pass continuous flow photochemical reactor is reported. Their (1)H and (13)C NMR spectra are fully assigned, revealing some general characteristics not previously reported for this class of compound, which should aid the assignment and prediction of the NMR spectra of PCUD derivatives.
