Titanium(Ⅳ) isopropoxide [Ti(Oi-Pr)4] plays a key role during the photo cycloaddition, which may help to accelerate the in teraction between dienophile and the stereo-hi ndered diene species as well as control the diastereoselectivity. This photolysis provides a new solution for the stereospecific formation core structures of aromatic abietane diterpenoids and sesquiterpenoids, which have multiple functional groups for the further transformations.
