The very first representative of trithia-bridged N-heterotriangulene, a triphenylamine with sulfur atoms bridging the ortho-positions, was synthesized by a sequence of regioselective sulfenylation with phthalimidesulfenyl chloride followed by Lewis acid-catalyzed electrophilic cyclization. X-ray crystallography revealed a saddle-shaped geometry of the polycyclic scaffold. UV/Vis absorption spectroscopy and cyclic voltammetry were used to characterize the optoelectronic properties.
