摘要
(Chemical Equation Presented) Metathesis with a twist! A ring-closing-metathesis strategy has been developed for the preparation of various substituted [5]helicene motifs and [6]- and [7]helicenes. The two optimized protocols include one method that utilizes the Grubbs second-generation catalyst under microwave-irradiation conditions and another that employs a modified Grubbs-Hoveyda catalyst at 40°C in a sealed reaction vessel.
