Easier to Twist than Bend: The Scope of the Bridge Formation Approach to Naphthalenophane Synthesis
Abstract Twisting anthracene and higher acenes can alter their optical, magnetic, and electronic properties. To test the effect of twisting on the lower homologue, naphthalene, we synthesized tethered naphthalenophanes bearing alkyl bridges. Both X-ray structure and DFT calculations show that hexyl...
