The photoaddition, hydrolysis, retro‐aldol sequences 1 → 2 → 3 and 4 → 5 + 6 → 7 proceeded in high yield and in a regiospecific manner. However, the enol acetate 8 on irradiation furnished the tricyclic ketoacetate 9 as the major product, presumably by a hydrogen shift in the intermediate diradical 11 . Hydrolysis of the minor photoadduct 10 gave the dione 13 .
