Isolation of a 1,4-diketone intermediate in oxidative dimerization of 2-hydroxyanthracene and its conversion to oxahelicene

Abstract: Oxidation of 2-hydroxy-9,10-dialkynylanthracenes resulted in highly regioselective dimerization to furnish metastable dearomatized 1,4-diketones rather than stable aromatic diols. The 1,4-diketones were converted to oxahelicenes, which exhibited strong fluorescence both in solution and solid state as well as chiroptical properties.

“…Given both the large number of reported CPL‐active [ n ]helicenes and also their quite diverse structural motifs (Scheme 4), we shall distinguish and base the discussion of the surveyed compounds on five main classes: 1) purely monomeric organic [ n ]helicenes (in turn divided into 6 subclasses according to n, with n being the number of aromatic units forming the helicene scaffold); [38–65] 2) dimeric systems; [48, 50, 66–68] 3) S‐shaped systems; [69, 70] 4) systems with semimetals (B and Si) in the [ n ]helicenes core or directly linked to it; [71–76] and 5) cationic systems [77–80] (Scheme 4 and Table 4).…”

“…Single azahelicenes, such as 3-(2-pyridyl)-4-aza[6]helicene ( H9 ) [82] and 3-(2-pyridyl)-4-aza[6]-helicene ( H10 ) [83], had the similar ϕ F values to those of H7 and H8 , but had the lower |g lum | values than those of H7 and H8 . According to the results of Hiroto and Shinokubo et al [84], the 1,4-diketones were converted to oxahelicenes ( H11 ), which exhibited strong fluorescence (66.0%) both in solution and solid state as well as chiroptical properties (1.2 × 10 −3 ). Tanaka et al [85] achieved the first enantioselective synthesis of a sila[7]helicene ( H12 ) through the double [2 + 2 + 2] cycloaddition of a biaryl-linked tetrayne with a silicon-linked bis (propargylic alcohol) as a key step.…”

“…The CPL spectra of 3c are shown in Figureà. The dissymmetric factor g (normalized difference in emission of right‐handed and left‐handed CPL) was determined to be 1.4 × 10 –3 at 543 nm, which is comparable to that of π‐extended [7]helicene‐like molecule VII (Figureà) (| g | 1.2 × 10 –3 at 550 nm) …”
