Key Points

The study presents boron(III) complexes that showcase persistent helical chirality, expanding the understanding of macrocycles.
Key findings highlight the formation of a ‘figure-eight’ conformation, which plays a role in the optical properties of the complexes.
The synthesis involves 11,12-dihydroindolo[2,3-a]carbazole, demonstrating its potential in developing novel porphyrinoids.
Preliminary analyses suggest these complexes may have applications in materials science or photonics due to their unique structures.

Implication

This research demonstrates the synthesis of boron(III) complexes in macrocycles, suggesting unique helical chirality.

Abstract

Herein, we report the synthesis of 11,12-dihydroindolo[2,3-a]carbazole (InC) 1 incorporated expanded porphyrinoid 8, and its boron(III) complexes (8·BF2 and 8·BF). These macrocycles exhibit a ‘figure-eight’ conformation that exists as a...
