A convergent synthesis of racemic [6]hexahelicene-7-carboxylic acid by cross-coupling of a bicyclic and a tricyclic component is described. A metal-catalyzed ring-closure is also a fundamental component of the synthetic approach. Scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) measurements of the racemate self-assembled on Au(111) at liquid–solid interface revealed the formation of ordered racemic 2D crystals.
