Synthesis and characterization of phenanthrene derivatives for optoelectronic applications

New phenanthrene derivatives, bearing cyano group at selected positions, have been prepared in good yields through Knoevenagel condensation and classical oxidative photocyclization. The optical properties of the cyanophenanthrenes have been investigated b

Substituent effects on the iodine-catalyzed thermal cyclization of 3,4-diphenylbuta-1,3-dienyl isocyanates: Mechanistic studies

The thermal cyclization of 3,4-diphenylbuta-1,3-dienyl isocyanates 1, generated in situ from the corresponding azides, was investigated using iodine as a catalyst. Diphenylpyridinones 2, phenylnaphthalenes 3, and indenes 4 were produced via intramolecular ring closure. The nature of the substituents on the phenyl rings was found to be crucial to the distribution of cyclized products 2 - 4. The mechanism of the reaction is also discussed.
