Investigations of the photocyclization with various substrates revealed the relationship between the regioselectivity and electron-donating/withdrawing effects of the substituents on the aromatic groups. Moreover, theoretical investigation suggested the importance of bond alteration in the aromatic groups: cyclization proceeds preferentially at shorter C-C bonds with higher double bond characters.
