A general method to synthesize conjugated molecules with a benzofulvene core is reported. Up to four conjugated substituents have been introduced via a three-step sequence including (1) synthesis of 1,2-bis(arylethynyl)benzenes; (2) exo-dig electrophilic cyclization promoted by iodine; and (3) cross-coupling reaction of the resulting bis-iodobenzofulvenes with organoboron, organotin, or ethynyl derivatives under Pd catalysis. Structural aspects of the new compounds are discussed.

Abstract
A general method to synthesize conjugated molecules with a benzofulvene core is reported. Up to four conjugated substituents have been introduced via a three-step sequence including (1) synthesis of 1,2-bis(arylethynyl)benzenes; (2) exo-dig electrophilic cyclization promoted by iodine; and (3) cross-coupling reaction of the resulting bis-iodobenzofulvenes with organoboron, organotin, or ethynyl derivatives under Pd catalysis. Structural aspects of the new compounds are discussed.File in questo prodotto:
