The phane properties of anti-[2.2](1,4)biphenylenophane.
[structure: see text] Anti-[2.2](1,4)biphenylenophane (4) was synthesized from de Meijere's tetrabromo[2.2]paracyclophane (5) through a four-step reaction sequence. Although an average separation of 3.09 A between the inner ring of the biphenylene units is normal for [2.2]paracyclophanes, a bond distance of 1.54 Afor the ethano C-C bridge at room temperature is shorter than usual. In addition, trimethylsilyl-substituted anti-[2.2](1,4)biphenylenophane 8 sublimes at 220 degrees C under a pressure lower than 1 x10(-5) Torr without decomposition or thermal isomerization. The high thermal stability of 8 suggested that the ethano bridges of the biphenylenophanes are less strained than those of [2.2]paracyclophane. Bathochromic shifts are observed in their UV-vis absorption spectra. The phane state interactions of 4 and 8 were evidenced by the weak structureless fluorescent emission maximized at 537 and 550 nm in CH(2)Cl(2) along with longer relaxation lifetimes of 229 and 292 ps, respectively.

Furan-containing oligoaryl cyclophanene.
[structure: see text] Furan-containing oligoaryl cyclophanene 1 and the corresponding cyclophane 2 were synthesized from propargylic dithioacetal 3. The electrochemical and photophysical properties and the fluxional behavior of these molecules have been examined. The emission of 1 appeared at 499 nm whereas that of 2 appeared at 389 nm.
