12. Before starting the cyclization reaction in the dark, a solution of 1 was allowed to stand in the dark for 24 h at 30 °C, or the solution was irradiated with the Hg lamp through a Y-46 filter for 2 min and allowed to stand in the dark at 30 °C for 8 h. The UV spectra showed the absorption band of the trans-form rapidly reached a photo-steady state under irradiation through a Y-46 filter, but the intensity was slightly increased in the dark.
