Photoexcited 1‐naphthalenecarbonitrile ( 1 ) adds 2‐morpholinoacrylonitrile ( 2 ) in the [2 + 2] mode both at the C(1) – C(2) and C(7) – C(8) bond unidirectionally and with the formation of only one ( 3 and 4 , respectively) of the two a priori possible stereoisomers in each case. The structure of 3 has been unambiguously confirmed by an X‐ray structural analysis.
