Abstract
AbstractA novel structurally constrained nanobelt, methylene-bridged [6]cyclo-2,6-naphthylene ([6]MCN), has been synthesized by the nickel-mediated intramolecular aryl–aryl coupling of a triflated prism[6]arene. The structural and electronic properties of [6]MCN were revealed through NMR studies and photophysical measurements. In contrast to methylene-bridged [6]cycloparaphenylene, our previously synthesized benzene-based analogue, [6]MCN has a low strain energy (77.4 kcal·mol–1) and displays bright fluorescence (Φ = 0.20).
