UV irradiation of the bicyclic enimine 1 led stereospecifically to the anti ‐tricyclic isomer 2 which reverted back to 1 , either by thermal activation or by acid catalysis at room temperature. Catalytic hydrogenation of 2 gave compound 4 whose configuration was fully ascertained by high‐field 1 H‐NMR measurements.
