Benzo[ b ]thiophene‐2‐carboxaldehyde undergoes condensation with 4‐methylpyridine and with 2‐methylquinoline to produce trans ‐diarylethenes (52% and 76%, respectively). The former alkene photocyclizes in cyclohexane to yield [1]benzo[2,3‐ h ]isoquinoline (35%), while the latter alkene does not give successful, analogous cyclization.
