Selective syntheses of [7]-[12]cycloparaphenylenes using orthogonal Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions.
The divergent, selective syntheses of [7]-[12]cycloparaphenylenes have been accomplished utilizing sequential, orthogonal Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions from two late-stage intermediates. Quantum yields decrease dramatically as cycloparaphenylene size decreases, highlighting the unique photophysical behavior of the smaller cycloparaphenylenes.
