A tandem acetylene-activated SAr-anionic cyclization strategy is presented for the synthesis of chalcogen-containing hetero[5]helicenes. Oxa-, thia-, and selena[5]helicenes are accessed from common -fluoro-ethynylarene precursors, allowing the heteroatoms to be installed at the 1-position or 1- and 12-positions of the hetero[5]helicene inner core surface.
