title: Synthesis of 2-aza[6]helicene and attempts to synthesize 2,14-diaza[6]helicene utilizing metal-catalyzed cycloisomerization.
abstract: A modular synthetic approach leading to 2-aza[6]helicene is reported. It involves assembly of key hetero biphenylylnaphthalenes from functionalized building blocks and study of their metal catalyzed cycloisomerization.
