Dichlorocarbene (CCl(2)), generated by laser flash photolysis of dichlorodiazirine, formed pi- and O-ylidic complexes with aromatic ethers such as anisole, 1,3-dimethoxybenzene, 1,3,5-trimethoxybenzene, dibenzofuran, and dibenzo-18-crown-6 and with the aromatic ester phenyl acetate. These complexes were visualized by UV-vis spectroscopy, and
