A tandem dienone photorearrangement鈥揷ycloaddition (DPC) reaction of novel cyclohexadienone substrates tethered with various 2蟺 and 4蟺 reaction partners resulted in the formation of polycyclic, bridged frameworks. In particular, use of alkynyl ether-tethered substrates led to (3 + 2) cycloaddition to afford strained alkenes which could be further elaborated by intra- and intermolecular cycloaddition chemistry to produce complex, polycyclic chemotypes.
