Photodimerization of a 1D hydrogen-bonded zwitter-ionic lead(ii) complex and its isomerization in solution

Abstract

A pair of bpe–H+ ligands in a zwitter-ionic complex undergoes photochemical cycloaddition quantitatively accompanied by proton transfer and the cyclobutane ring isomerizes slowly in solution to two more isomers, catalyzed by CF3CO2H acid.
