Porous curved polycyclic aromatic compounds 6 and 14 bearing a tribenzotriquinacene (TBTQ) core encircled by an m,p,p,m,m,p,p,m,m,p,p,m-cyclododecaphenylene belt were synthesized and characterized by NMR spectroscopy and mass spectrometry. These trefoil hydrocarbon macrocycles were constructed in high yield using an intramolecular three-fold Scholl macrocyclization. X-ray crystal analysis of 14 demonstrated a large wizard-hat-shaped structure with three pores (radii 2.9-3.0 Å). The π-stacking aggregation of the hexa-n-dodecyloxy derivative 6 a and the chloride anion binding properties of 14 were studied by NMR spectroscopy. Such stacking and anion binding properties were much weaker in the singly 11 and doubly macrocyclized products 12.

Donor-Acceptor Tribenzotriquinacene-Based Molecular Wizard Hats Bearing Three ortho-Benzoquinone Units.

Two π-extended bay-bridged tribenzotriquinacenes ("TBTQ wizard hats") 12 and 16 bearing three mutually conjugated, alternating veratrole-type and ortho-benzoquinone units were synthesized. The electronic properties of these complementarily arranged, nonplanar push-pull systems are affected by the fusion with the rigid, C -symmetric TBTQ core to a different extent, as revealed by X-ray structural analysis, UV-vis spectroscopy and cyclovoltammetry. The combination of three quinone units within the original TBTQ core and three veratrole-type bay bridging units in 12 gives rise to a more efficiently π-conjugated chromophore, as reflected by the shallower shape of wizard hat and its absorption in the visible up to 750 nm in comparison to 16.

A sugar-functionalized water-soluble tribenzotriquinacene derivative bearing six glucose residues, , was synthesized and its interaction with C and C-fullerene in co-organic solvents and aqueous solution was investigated by fluorescence spectroscopy and ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy. The association stoichiometry of the complexes with C and with C was found to be 1:1 with binding constants of = (1.50 ± 0.

A six-step synthesis towards a tribenzotriquinacene (TBTQ) bearing three quinoxalinophenanthrophenazine (QPP) units is presented. The optoelectronic properties are investigated and the effect of the three-dimensional arrangement of the individual QPP planes is examined using optical spectroscopy, electrochemical analysis and quantum-chemical calculations.

Enzyme-catalysed hydrolysis of the inherently chiral aryl acetate rac-11 bearing the bowl-shaped tribenzotriquinacene (TBTQ) core enables the stereoselective synthesis of the enantiomerically pure (M)-2-hydroxytribenzotriquinacene (M)-12. Starting from rac-11, for which two independent routes are described, the use of immobilised lipase CAL-A in buffered biphasic solution at pH 7 led to the TBTQ-phenol (M)-12 in 33% yield and with >99% ee on a preparative scale. Extended enzyme screening revealed that the use of CAL-B gives the same enantioselectivity.
