The hitherto unknown hexakis(halomethyl)-functionalized tribenzotriquinacenes (TBTQs) 9 and 10 were synthesized from the key 4b,8b,12b-tribromo-TBTQ derivative 6 by an improved route in 67% overall yield. Extension of the bowl-shaped framework of 9 or 10 by threefold condensation with propargylamine or 2-azidoethylamine afforded the corresponding TBTQ-trialkyne 11 and TBTQ-triazide 12 , respectively. While attempts to construct bis-TBTQ cages, including homodimerization of 11 and heterocoupling of 11 with 12 , were unsuccessful, triazide 12 was found to undergo threefold [3 + 2]-cycloaddition with 3-ethynylaniline and phloroglucinol tripropargyl ether under click chemistry conditions. The latter reaction enabled facile capping of the TBTQ bowl to give the novel cage compound 5 in 22% yield. |
