Modular Approach to the Synthesis of Two-Dimensional Angular Fused Acenes

Herein, we present a modular approach to pristine angularly fused planar acenes. The approach includes the Pd-catalyzed fusion of several building blocks and implements a dehydrative ?-extension (DPEX) reaction as a key step enabling facile access to diverse two-dimensional acenes. The scope was demonstrated on nine examples with up to quantitative yield.

A leaving substituent-containing compound represented by General Formula (I), wherein the leaving substituent-containing compound can be converted to a compound represented by General Formula (Ia) and a compound represented by General Formula (II), by applying energy to the leaving substituent-containing compound, in General Formulas (I), (Ia) and (II), X and Y each represent a hydrogen atom or a leaving substituent, where one of X and Y is the leaving substituent and the other is the hydrogen atom; Q2 to Q5 each represent a hydrogen atom, a halogen atom or a monovalent organic group; Q1 and Q6 each represent a hydrogen atom or a monovalent organic group other than the leaving substituent; and among the monovalent organic groups represented by Q1 to Q6, adjacent monovalent organic groups may be linked together to form a ring.

Phenacenes: A family of graphite ribbons. 1. Syntheses of some [7]phenacenes by stilbene-like photocyclizations

The largest previously reported phenacene, the name we propose for the family of polycyclic aromatic compounds having fused benzene rings in an extended phenanthrene-like structural motif, contains only six rings ([6]phenacene). We have employed stilbene-like photocyclizations to synthesize the unsubstituted [7]phenacene, an extremely insoluble compound, as well as 2,13-di-n-pentyl[7]phenacene and 2,13-di-tert-butyl[7]phenacene, two alkyl-substituted derivatives with greatly improved solubilities.
