(Figure Presented) You rang m'lord? Thermally induced successive ring openings of tris (alkoxytricyclobutabenzene) to hexaradialene are described. The isomerization reaction was highly stereoselective to afford a stereodefined hexaradialene 1, given that the hydroxy groups on the four-membered rings were protected by bulky substituents.
