Incorrect starting material in diagram
editThe synthesis route of van Tamelen is correctly described as starting from photolysis of the cis-1,2-dihydro derivative of phthalic anhydride. However the diagram shows photolysis of phthalic anhydride itself, with an extra two hydrogens mysteriously appearing during the photolysis. I have checked the cited 1963 paper by van Tamelen and Pappas - our article text is correct but the diagram shows the wrong starting material. Can someone redraw the diagram?
