Abstract
Acid-catalyzed [3+3] condensation reactions of two hitherto unknown tripyrrane moieties with pentafluorobenzaldehyde has led to the formation of new generation
heteroannulene (4.1.4.1) and mutant heteroannulene (1.1.1.1.1.1). Inclusion of local p-aromatic sextets, namely the N-methyl pyrrole rings through b,b-linkages
and a,b-linkages, has led to the isolation of first ever heteroannulenes cross-conjugated at four points and two points respectively within the macrocycles.
