High-content Dewar benzene polymers and sterically congested [n] -ladderanes have been synthesized from [4πs+2πs] cyclobutadienemetal complex cycloaddition chemistry. In the former case, tetramethylcyclobutadiene-AlCl3 is reacted with an acetylene-containing precursor polymer to yield > 95% Dewar benzene incorporation. In the latter case, [n]-ladderanes containing up to thirteen rings are prepared via a one-pot procedure from 2-butyne.
