The titled strained cyclophane, the smallest member of this family to be known, was synthesized by bromination-dehydrobromination of the corresponding triene in good yield; its X-ray crystallographic analysis reveals an averaged sp bond angle of 158.6°that is substantially bent from the normal, linear triple bond.
