11. This molecule is a proposed intermediate in the transformation of enediynes to indenes under photoreductive conditions, the process which is different in mechanism from reactions reported in this paper: Alabugin, I. V.; Kovalenko, S. V. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2002, 124, 9052. Acyclic addition products constitute the rest of the reaction mixture.
