Tribenzotriquinacene Fused Dimers (“Fusodimers”)—Synthesis and Host–Guest Properties

ABSTRACT The synthesis and structural properties of two stereoisomeric tribenzotriquinacene (TBTQ) derivatives, syn ‐ 4 and anti ‐ 4 , in which two rigid TBTQ bowls share a common benzene ring, are described. Owing to the orthogonal orientation of the three indane wings in each o...
