Irradiation of a methanolic solution of 3-alkoxy-6-chloro-2-{(E)-1′-methyl-2′-phenylvinyl}-4-oxo-4H-1-benzopyrans yielded 12H-benzo[a]xanthen-12-one, pyranopyrones, oxetanopyrananones and 7-chloro-3-methyl-2-phenyl-1,4-dioxa-cyclopenta-[b]naphthalene-9-one depending upon the structure of 3-alkoxy group (methoxy, benzyloxy, and allyloxy). The methyl group on the styryl moiety has been found to have a profound effect on the product formation due to the variation of energy gap between the π-π* excited state of triene system as compared to the n-π* state of the C{double bond, long}O group. © 2009 Elsevier B.V.
