A biorenewable cyclobutane-containing building block synthesized from sorbic acid using photoenergy

Summary: A novel cyclobutane-containing diacid building block, CBDA-3, was synthesized from sorbic acid using clean, efficient [2 + 2] photocycloaddition. This photoreaction can be performed using commercially available germicidal lamps, which represent a form of ECO-UV. SC-XRD showed that the cyclo...
