Synthesis of Azahexabenzocoronenium Salts through a Formal [3 + 3] Cycloaddition Strategy.

Nat. Synth. 2024;
3: 1283-1291
 

Significance

A formal [3+3] cycloaddition is realized by reacting aromatic azomethine ylides with cyclopropenes, to produce a pyridinum ring. One of the products finally leads to a cationic N-embedded hexabenzocoronenium scaffold.

Comment

Following a 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition and then oxidative rearrangement of azabicyclohexane into a pyridium ring, the dehydrogenative cyclization, which failed under the Scholl reaction conditions, is accomplished via a reductive mechanochemical (ball milling) process.
