Photolysis of N-(α,β-unsaturated carbonyl)thioamides gave thietane-fused β-lactams in good yields, whereas some of the thioimides formed thiones via β-hydrogen abstraction of the thiocarbonyl group.Substituents at the α-position to the carbonyl carbon lead to a preference for cyclization over β-hydrogen abstraction.From a sensitisation experiment this reaction was shown to proceed via an n?* triplet excited state.
