Abstract
An antiaromatic compound, 5-bromo-10-iododibenzopentalene, underwent nucleophilic substitution of heteroatoms such as R2NLi, ROLi, and RSLi. This subst itution proceeded preferentially at the bromopentalene moiety than at the iodo-counterpart. Combining this substitution and Sonogashira coupling enabled syntheses of π-systems expanded by a dibenzopentalene array and heteroatom(s).
