[2](1,4)-Benzeno-[2](1,4)-triptycenophane: nuclear magnetic resonance evidence of a skew [2,2]-paracyclophane moiety
Abstract
Addition of dehydro-[2,2]-paracyclophane to anthracene gives the title compound containing crossed triptycene and [2,2]-paracyclophane systems, the latter moiety significantly distorted as evidenced by the n.m.r. data.
