A novel dicyclopenta-fused peropyrene derivative <b>1</b> was synthesized via a palladium-catalyzed four-fold alkyne annulation of 1,3,6,8-tetrabromo-2,7-diphenylpyrene (<b>5</b>) with diphenylacetylene. The annulative π-extension reaction toward <b>1</b> involved a twofold [3 + 2] cyclopentannulation and subsequent twofold [4 + 2] benzannulation. The structure of <b>1</b> is unambiguously confirmed by X-ray crystallography; <b>1</b> adopted a twisted geometry due to the steric hindrance of the ...[more]
