Abstract

We describe a series of functionalized N-containing heterosuperbenzenes, created with a view to investigating the strategic role of methoxy substituents in (i) promoting cyclodehydrogenation and (ii) tuning the electronic properties and (iii) the supramolecular order in the resultant fused products.
