A new trefoil-shaped molecular architecture consisting of three conjugated macrocycles was synthesized through an unprecedented 3-fold copper catalyzed [4 + 2] benzannulation. DFT calculations indicate that the most stable conformation of this trefoil macrocycle is D3-symmetric. In agreement with the calculated results, the trefoil macrocycle in single crystals exists as a pair of enantiomers with D3-symmetry and exhibits interesting honeycomb-like supramolecular structures.

The synthesis of 1,3,5 / 2,4,6 differentially functionalized hexaethynylbenzene derivatives is described. Interesting solvatochromic behavior was observed for 9b in the absorption and emission spectre. A twisted intramolecular charge transfer (TICT) state in polar solvents appears to be involved.
