title: Experimental and theoretical studies on the radical-cation-mediated imino-Diels-Alder reaction.
abstract: The feasibility of an electron transfer imino-Diels-Alder reaction between N-benzylideneaniline and arylalkenes in the presence of a pyrylium salt as a photosensitizer has been demonstrated by a combination of product studies, laser flash photolysis (LFP), and DFT theoretical calculations. A stepwise mechanism involving two intermediates and two transition states is proposed.
