The unusual reactivity of [6](1,4)naphthalenophane (2) and [6](1,4)anthracenophane (3), the smallest-bridged acenophanes hitherto known, in electrophilic reactions has been disclosed. These reactions include (i) acid-catalyzed telomerization, (ii) peracid

Whereas treatment of 1,4-hexamethylene-bridged benzene paracyclophane (1) with a catalytic amount of H2SO4 gave, as a minor product, dimer 6, along with isomers 4 and 5, similar treatment of 1,4-hexamethylene-bridged naphthalene (1,4)naphthalenophane (2) afforded predominantly dimers 7 and 8, together with trimers 9 and 10.The 1,4-hexamethylene-bridged anthracene (1,4)anthracenophane (3) yielded only trimers 13 and 14.
