title: The rapid photomediated alkenylation of 2-alkyl-1,3-dioxolanes with alkynes: A stereoelectronically assisted chain reaction.
abstract: The photomediated reaction of alkynes such as DMAD with 1,3-dioxolanes leads to remarkably rapid alkenylation; evidence is presented that these reactions occur via a chain mechanism.
