27. Note: In our case, the system of the two triplet states can be well described by single determinantal methods, such as DFT, as evidenced by preliminary CASSCF calculations.

32. (b) Note: In fact, the indanone 13 is poorly soluble in hexane and precipitates at the concentrations used, which may considerably decrease the efficiency of unwanted secondary photoreactions. Moreover, the yield of 13 formation could be, in principle, improved by setting the irradiation wavelength to approximately 266 nm, where the ratio of the absorption coefficients of 10 and 13 reaches its maximum (see Figures S24 and S25 in the Supporting Information).
