Relieve strain with a twist! Synthesis of the paracyclophane 1 and its dimer 2 employed a sequence of metal-mediated couplings. The X-ray analysis of 2 revealed a helical twist inherent in this structure, which created extended arms, that trapped a molecule of solvent. A carboxylic acid derivative of 1 was also prepared, and its structure indicated the diyne rod moiety of 1 is distorted more than in analogous compounds.
