The direct [2 + 2]-photocycloaddition of (Z)-2-phenyl-4-aryliden-5(4H)-oxazolones 1 to give 1,3-diaminotruxillic cyclobutane derivatives 2 in very good yields (75–100%) is reported. The reaction takes place by irradiation of CH2Cl2 solutions of 1 with blue light (465 nm) provided by light-emitting diode (LED) lamps of low power (around 1 W) for 72 h. Four isomers of the 1,3-diaminotruxillic cyclobutanes 2 were obtained; all of them fully characterized by a combination of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction analysis. The reaction shows a certain selectivity, since one of the isomers (the epsilon) is obtained preferentially, and works for electron-releasing and electron-withdrawing substituents at the arylidene ring. A novel setup is presented for the in-line monitoring of the continuous flow photoassisted synthesis of the cyclobutane derivatives 2 by NMR spectroscopy, with the microreactor dramatically reducing reaction times to only 30 min with clear product distribution of...
