The synthesis and properties of various [<i>n</i>]cyclo-1,4-naphthylenes ([<i>n</i>]CNs, <i>n</i> = 8, 10, 12, and 16) are described. Initially, extended L-shaped units, which could be converted into quater- or quinquenaphthylenes were prepared. Nickel- or palladium-mediated couplings of these extended L-shaped units, followed by reductive aromatization of the coupling products afforded [8]-, [10]-, [12]-, and [16]CNs. The size-dependent photophysical properties of these CNs were confirmed by me ...[more]
