On π,π*‐excitation of the epoxyenone ( E )‐ 1 (λ = 254 nm, MeCN), in addition to the previously isolated compounds 2 – 9 , the new products 10 – 12 , derived from the ylide intermediate c were isolated. Further evidence for the ylide c was obtained by the rapid racemization of the optically active epoxyenone (−)‐( E )‐ 1 .
