Non‐Pyrolytic, Large‐Scale Synthesis of Trichalcogenasumanene: A Two‐Step Approach

Abstract

Abstract Trichalcogenasumanenes were synthesized on a multigram scale through a two‐step approach that takes advantage of non‐pyrolytic cyclization and solventless ring contraction. Solid‐state structure and photophysical investigations demonstrate that these compounds are promising candidates for electronic materials.
