Starting from readily available 7-substituted 1-indanones, products with a tetracyclo[5.3.1.0<sup>1,7</sup> 0<sup>4,11</sup> ]undec-2-ene skeleton were obtained upon irradiation at λ=350 nm (eight examples, 49-67 % yield). The assembly of the structurally complex carbon framework proceeds in a three-photon process comprising an ortho photocycloaddition, a disrotatory [4π] photocyclization, and a di-π-methane rearrangement. The flat aromatic core of the starting material is converted into a funct ...[more]
