Key Points

Investigate the synthesis of functionalized triphenylenes using arylboronic acids and cyclic diaryliodonium salts.
Utilized tandem Suzuki-Miyaura and intramolecular C-C coupling techniques.
Employed arylboronic acids in the presence of cyclic diaryliodonium salts.
Examined scalability for large-sized polycyclic arenas.
Successfully synthesized functionalized triphenylenes.
Demonstrated site-selective [4+2] and [4+3] annulations.
Expanded the scope of polycyclic aromatic compound synthesis.

Implication

Tandem Suzuki-Miyaura and C-C coupling generates functionalized triphenylenes, suggesting new approaches for polycyclic synthesis.

Abstract

A facile access to functionalized triphenylenes through tandem Suzuki-Miyaura and intramolecular C-C coupling between arylboronic acids and cyclic diaryliodonium salts is disclosed. More importantly, this protocol can expand to large-sized...
