49. To check this hypothesis, compound 17 was irradiated under the usual conditions. After 48 h, the compound was recovered unaltered, except for minor decomposition. Compound 19 was not observed, thus confirming that this compound comes from reduction of the metallacyclopropanone intermediate and not of compound 17.
