a Photocycloaddition and photoisomerization reactions of FA 18:1 (9Z). The photocatalyst is Ir[dF(CF3)ppy]2(dtbbpy)PF6. b Mass spectrum of the photocatalytic reaction solution of FA 18:1 (9Z) in negative ion mode. c MS/MS spectrum of the sodiated photocycloaddition product P1/P2 in positive ion mode. Peak at m/z 187.03 denotes the fragment ion of the methyl benzoylformate motif. Peaks at m/z 409.27 and 437.27 may be assigned to the fragment ions of P1/P2 after losing the CO2Me and MeOH structures, respectively. d Extracted ion chromatograms (EIC) of FA 18:1 (9Z) and FA 18:1 (9E) before and after the photocatalytic reaction in negative ion mode.
