Bicyclobutane formation and a 1,5 H shift , and not photocyclization to the cyclobutene derivative, predominate on the irradiation of highly alkylated nonplanar 1,3‐dienes 1 . Bicyclobutanes 2 are also formed from dienes with two central t Bu groups, whereas the corresponding i Pr‐substituted compounds afford almost exclusively 3 . For dienes with an i Pr and a t Bu group, the two pathways are almost equally likely to occur.
