title: Two-step synthesis of hexaammonium triptycene: an air-stable building block for condensation reactions to extended triptycene derivatives.
abstract: A simple two-step synthesis of an air-stable hexaammoniumtriptycene is introduced, which can be used for a variety of transformations by condensation reactions, e.g., to benzimidazole, benzotriazole, and quinoxaline derivatives in high yields.
