The major photochemical product exhibits thermal stability, with a unique yield of 98%.
1,3-bis-O-(9-anthroyl)-1,3-propanediol irradiated with UV light produced key intramolecular photoproducts.
X-ray crystallography confirmed the structure of the dianthracene cyclomer, a significant finding in its photochemistry.
This cyclomer demonstrates potential applications in locked configurations against thermal and photochemical reversion.
