This review surveys recent progress in the chemistry of polycyclic heteroaromatic molecules
with a focus on structural diversity and synthetic methodology. The article covers literature …

In recent years, transition metal-catalyzed C–H activation and site-selective functionalization
have been considered to be valuable synthetic tactics to functionalize organic compounds …

Sila-molecules have recently attracted attention due to their promising applications in
medical and industrial fields. Compared with all-carbon parent compounds, the different …

Given that pyrene represents one of the most versatile chromophores, the development of
new selective routes for its functionalization and tuning of its emission properties is highly …

We take advantage of the Pummerer oxidative annulation reaction to extend PAHs through
the formation of an intramolecular C–O bond with a suitable phenol substituent. Depending …

C− H arylation of 1‐pyrenylphosphine derivatives catalyzed by rhodium and directed by a
diphenylphosphino group is selectively achieved at the K‐region, ie 4‐, 5‐, 9‐, or 10 …

A straightforward method for the preparation of non-K region fused phosphorus-and nitrogen-
containing (PN)-heterocyclic pyrenes has been accomplished. Their structural …

The precursor PPyrCl 2 (Pyr= 1-pyrenyl) has been used to prepare a number of novel 1-
pyrenylphosphines. Treatment of PPyrCl 2 with methylmagnesium chloride has provided the …

We report the efficient synthesis of electron-acceptors based on cationic P-doped polycyclic
aromatic hydrocarbons. In particular, exo-skeletal modifications of the π-core were …

Three series new NH2-benzophosphole oxides were synthesized from cycloaddition of o-
aminophenyl phosphine oxide with alkynes. The relationship between the location of the …
