A facile synthesis of trinaphtho[3.3.3]propellane and its π-extension and the formation of a two-dimensional honeycomb molecular assembly†
Abstract
The multi-gram-scale synthesis of trinaphtho[3.3.3]propellane (TNP) and its π-extension were achieved. X-ray crystallographic analysis revealed that charge transfer complexes of the π-extended TNP with F4-TCNQ form a two-dimensional honeycomb lattice.
