Abstract
Abstract: CpCo (CO), has been found to catalyze the cocyclization of o-diethynylbenzenes with alkynes to give 2, 3-disubstituted biphenylenes. This method has been applied to the total synthesis of [3] phenylene (3) and some silylated derivatives 4 and 5. The spectral, chemical, and structural data indicate this system to be a highly unusual “ benzocyclobutadienoid” hydrocarbon framework containing [4n+ 21 7 electrons. The ...
