Triptycene-Cored Double [5]Helicene: Chirality Transfervia the R / S Triptycene Core to P / M Helical Motifs

Abstract A series of double [5]helicenes with a triptycene core were synthesized via photocyclization. Single-crystal X-ray analysis unambiguously confirms these helicenes with an R/S triptycene core and two M/P [5]helicene subunits. Transfer of the central axially helical chiral...
