title: Photoreactive gold(I) macrocycles with diphosphine and trans,trans-muconate ligands.
abstract: A pair of trans,trans-muconate ligands have been successfully aligned in two novel Au(I) macrocycles by design from phosphino metal precursors that undergo photochemical cycloaddition reactions quantitatively, resulting in the formation of cyclooctadiene derivatives.
