Abstract

Two plus two plus two times two: A double cobalt-catalyzed cycloisomerization was used to convert appropriate hexaynes into hydrocarbons 1 and 2. Their X-ray structures reveal pronounced helical topologies, but their barriers to enantiomerization are low compared to those of the helicenes.
