Abstract
A series of unconventional twisted pi-electron system molecules has been synthesized via Suzuki cross-coupling of two sterically hindered arenes. Crystallographic analysis of these molecules reveals a large ring-ring dihedral twist angle (87 degrees ) and a highly charge-separated zwitterionic ground state. An efficient conversion of phenols into aryl halides is also reported. [reaction: see text]Entities:
