P-protected diphosphadibenzo[a,e]pentalenes and their mono- and dicationic P-bridged ladder stilbenes

The previously elusive diphosphadibenzo[a,e]pentalene core skeleton was assembled via a surprisingly straightforward cyclization pathway starting from R2P-substituted 2,2′-diphosphinotolanes (R = Ph, iPr). The resulting P-protected diylidic compounds 4 (R = Ph, iPr) were converted to the correspondi...

Description
Summary:The previously elusive diphosphadibenzo[a,e]pentalene core skeleton was assembled via a surprisingly straightforward cyclization pathway starting from R2P-substituted 2,2′-diphosphinotolanes (R = Ph, iPr). The resulting P-protected diylidic compounds 4 (R = Ph, iPr) were converted to the corresponding P-bridged ladder stilbenes via two consecutive oxidation steps: upon selective one-electron oxidation, the persistent radical monocations 5 (R = Ph, iPr) were obtained and further oxidized to afford the respective fluorescent and air-stable dications 6 (R = Ph, iPr).
