Regioselective synthetic methods are reported for the head to head, head to tail, and tail to tail coupling of ethynylcyclopropanes. Oxidative cyclization of the head to head dimer 5-H2 under high dilution conditions gave the title compound, an 18-membered macrocycle comprising six acetylenic units and six spirocyclopropanes that alternate pairwise around the ring. An X-ray crystal structure and spectroscopic properties of this novel macrocycle are reported.
