Popis: The solid-state photodimerization of three polymorphic crystal forms (forms I, II, and III) of a bulky olefin, methyl (RS)-1-phenyl-2-piperidinoethyl (RS)-1,4-dihydro-2,6-dimethyl-4-(2-thiazolyl)pyridine-3,5-dicarboxylate hydrochloride, was studied. Forms I and II are anhydrous crystals and form III is an isomorphous hydrate of form II. X-Ray analyses of these forms showed that forms II and III have the same geometrical characteristics suggesting high susceptibility to photodimerization according to the well-known topochemical rule. Although UV irradiation of from II affords a photodimer, 4a,8a-dimethoxycarbonyl-2,4b,6,8b-tetramethyl-3-[(RS)-1-phenyl-2-piperidinoethoxycarbonyl]-7-[(SR)-1-phenyl-2-piperidinoethoxycarbonyl]-(4RS,8SR)-4,8-di(2-thiazolyl)-1,4,4a,4b,5,8,8a,8b-octahydro-cis-transoid-4a,4b-cis-cyclobuta[1,2-b : 3,4-b′]dipyridine, in high yield, the photolysis of form III proceeds much more slowly than that of form II. A detailed inspection of the crystal structures revealed that there is a space...
