Novel nanographenes were prepared by a photochemical cyclodehydrochlorination (CDHC) reaction. Chlorinated precursors were irradiated in acetone in the presence of a base or in pure benzene and underwent multiple (up to four) regioselective cyclization reactions to provide rigid π-conjugated molecules. Pure compounds were recovered in good yields by simple filtration at the end of the reaction. The CDHC reaction showed compatibility with both electron-poor and electron-rich substrates, thus allowing the synthesis of pyridine- and thiophene-fused nanographenes. It also enabled the synthesis of sterically hindered contorted π-conjugated molecules without causing full aromatization. A kinetic study showed that the CDHC reaction under the conditions used is a very fast process, and some reactions are completed within minutes. The CDHC reaction thus shows great potential as an alternative to other reactions involving harsher conditions for the preparation of nanographenes.

The iodination of chlorinated aromatic compounds using Ag 2SO4/I2, AgSbF6/I2, AgBF4/I2, and AgPF6/I2 offers access to iodoarenes that are valuable intermediates in organic synthesis. Specifically, iodination of phenols, anisoles, and anilines with a 3,5-dichloro substitution pattern preferentially yielded the ortho, para, and para iodinated product, respectively. In the case of chlorobenzene and 3-chlorotoluene, AgSbF6/I2, AgBF4/I2, and AgPF 6/I2, but not Ag2SO4/I2, selectively introduced the iodine in para position to the chlorine substituent.
