Copper-Catalyzed Chemoselective Silylative Cyclization of 2,2′-Diethynylbiaryl Derivatives

In this protocol, copper-catalyzed diverse silylative carbocyclization reactions of 2,2′-diethynylbiaryl derivatives with silaboronate were reported. Three new and novel types of domino reactions for the copper-catalyzed transformation of silaboronate were discovered. The corresponding cyclobuta[l]phenanthrene, bis((silyl)methyl)phenanthrene, and silyl-substituted exocyclic diene products were chemoselectively formed with high efficiency.

Preparation of Structurally and Electronically Diverse N → B-Ladder Boranes by [2 + 2 + 2] Cycloaddition

We report the synthesis of a series of eight N → B-ladder boranes through cobalt-mediated cyclotrimerization of (2-cyanophenyl)-dimesitylborane with different dialkynes. The resulting tetracoordinate boranes show variable electrochemical and optical prope

Ruthenium-Catalyzed Cycloisomerization of 2,2′-Diethynyl- biphenyls Involving Cleavage of a Carbon-Carbon Triple Bond

A ruthenium complex catalyzes a new cycloisomerization reaction of 2,2′-diethynylbiphenyls to form 9-ethynylphenanthrenes, thereby cleaving the carbon-carbon triple bond of the original ethynyl group. A metal-vinylidene complex is generated from one of th

Synthesis and photophysical studies of chiral helical macrocyclic scaffolds via coordination-driven self-assembly of 1,8,9,16-tetraethynyltetraphenylene. Formation of monometallic platinum(II) and dimetallic platinum(II)-ruthenium(II) complexes

This paper is concerned with the synthesis and reactions of enantiopure 1,8,9,16-tetraethynyltetraphenylene (3). We obtained 3 in 34% yield through four steps starting from 1,8,9,16-tetrahydroxytetraphenylene (2a) via a functional group interconversion st

Synthesis of a 2D lander

A method for the preparation of an asymmetric superbenzene is presented. The synthesis proceeds through the 12-fold cyclodehydrogenation of a polyaromatic precursor obtained by successive Diels-Alder additions of cyclopentadienones and alkynes. Wiley-VCH
