Multibridged [3(n)] cyclophanes, 11(+): A synthetic and structural study of 17,18-dicyano[32](1,6)cyclooctatetraeno-(1,4)cyclophane generated by photolysis of [32](1,4)barrelenophane

[32]Cyclooctatetraenophane (6) has been generated by photolysis of [32](1,4)barrelenophane (5), which, in turn, has been found to be most conveniently obtained by the uncatalyzed cycloaddition of dicyanoacetylene to [32](1

Synthesis of n> Cyclophanes and Related Compounds by Alkylation of Tosylmethyl Isocyanide with Bis(bromoethyl)benzenes

Bis(2-isocyano-2-tosylethyl)benzenes (12a, 12b, and 12c), synthesized by the reaction of tosylmethyl isocyanide (7) with bis(bromomethyl)benzenes (11a, 11b, and 11c) in 2:1 molar ratio, reacted again with 11a, 11b, and 11c under phase-transfer conditions
