Key Points

This research aims to develop an efficient method for synthesizing BN-doped [5]helicenes with high enantioselectivity.
Utilized a highly enantioselective, intramolecular, Au-catalyzed alkyne hydroarylation reaction.
Synthesized two families of BN-doped [5]helicenes.
Notable enantioselectivity achieved in the synthesis process.
Two distinct families of helicenes were successfully produced.

Implication

Demonstrates effective synthesis of BN-doped helicenes, suggesting a novel pathway for advanced materials.

Abstract

Two different families of BN-doped [5]helicenes have been efficiently synthesized through a highly enantioselective, intramolecular, Au-catalyzed alkyne hydroarylation reaction. Key for the success of the method is the use of...
