A [2+2] cross-photodimerisation of photostable olefins via a three-component cocrystal solid solution.
A ditopic hydrogen-bond-donor template in the form of resorcinol facilitates a [2+2] cross-photodimerisation of 4-Cl-stilbazole and 4-Me-stilbazole in a rare cocrystal solid solution. A photoreaction does not proceed with the olefins individually or as a solid solution composed solely of the two olefins.
