Planar [6]Radialenes: Structure, Synthesis, and Aromaticity of Benzotriselenophene and Benzotrithiophene (original) (raw)

2007, Angewandte Chemie International Edition

AI-generated Abstract

This research presents the synthesis and characterization of novel compounds, including benzo[1,2-c:3,4-c':5,6-c'']triselenophene and benzo[1,2-c:3,4-c':5,6-c'']trithiophene, which are identified as examples of planar [6]radialenes. The study highlights their unique geometric and electronic properties, specifically addressing the lack of aromaticity in their six-membered rings and providing X-ray crystal structure data that informs on their bond lengths and angles.
