An unprecedented and previously unknown photochemical reactivity of 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds is observed with amino-alkenes leading to dihydropyrans. This novel photochemical reactivity changes the established paradigm related to the De Mayo reaction between 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds and alkenes. This new reaction allows convenient access to the Marmycin core in a single step from commercially available reactants. The origin and scope of this new photoreaction is detailed with preliminary photophysical and mechanistic investigations.
