Abstract Photochemical crossed-cycloaddition reaction of acenaphthylene with acrylonitrile in micelle of nonionic surfactant was more effective than in benzene to give better yield of the addition products, especially by adding 1,3,5-heptatriene as quencher. Similarly, acenaphthylene with methyl acrylate in micellar system gave also good yield of the addition products.
