Abstract

A short, simple synthesis of C3-trinaphthotriphenylene 6, C42H24, from readily available precursors involving threefold Wittig reactions and threefold oxidative photocyclizations is reported; flash vacuum pyrolysis of 6 in the quest for C3-tribenzohemifullerene 5, C42H18, has so far led only to the formation of monobridged product 12, C42H22.
